Core Tip |
Twin to twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) is caused by an aberrant vascular connection between monochorionic infant twins. Necrotizing enterocolitis, jejunal/ileal atresia, and perforation have previously been reported, but there have been no reports of Hirschsprung’s disease in a donor infant with TTTS. The intrauterine hypoxemia in the case we report here may have inhibited neuroblast cell migration or caused the destruction of ganglion cells in the gut. The patient was a donor baby with symptoms of feeding intolerance and marked colon dilatation who was suffering from Hirschsprung’s disease and TTTS. |
