OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of three additional ultrasound markers, placental dichotomy, cardiomegaly and 'starry-sky' liver, in monochorionic twin pregnancy with twin anemia-polycythemia sequence (TAPS).
METHODS: All monochorionic twin pregnancies, diagnosed antenatally with TAPS at our center between 2006 and 2019, were reviewed retrospectively for the presence of placental dichotomy, cardiomegaly in the donor twin and a starry-sky liver in the recipient twin. TAPS was diagnosed based on delta middle cerebral artery (MCA) peak systolic velocity (PSV) > 0.5 multiples of the median. The primary outcome was the prevalence of placental dichotomy, cardiomegaly, starry-sky liver and at least one of these markers in both spontaneous and post-laser TAPS. The secondary outcome was the prevalence of these ultrasound markers according to the antenatal stage of TAPS.
RESULTS: A total of 91 monochorionic twin pregnancies with TAPS were eligible for analysis. Placental dichotomy was observed in 44% (40/91) of TAPS cases. A total of 70% (64/91) of the TAPS donors developed cardiomegaly and a starry-sky liver was identified in 66% (53/80) of the TAPS recipients. The prevalence of cardiomegaly and starry-sky liver was roughly comparable between spontaneous and post-laser TAPS (69% (33/48) vs 72% (31/43) and 64% (25/39) vs 68% (28/41), respectively). Pregnancies with spontaneous TAPS showed a higher prevalence of placental dichotomy compared with post-laser TAPS (63% (30/48) vs 23% (10/43)). At least one of the three ultrasound markers was detected in 86% (78/91) of TAPS cases, meaning that 14% (13/91) of cases presented solely with discordant MCA-PSV values. There was a trend towards increased prevalence of all three ultrasound markers with increasing antenatal TAPS stage.
CONCLUSIONS: Placental dichotomy, fetal cardiomegaly and a starry-sky liver are commonly found in TAPS pregnancy. Investigating the presence of these ultrasound markers can be of additional help in improving antenatal detection of TAPS in monochorionic twin pregnancy. © 2019 The Authors.
