Research Notes on Vanishing Twin Syndrome
Vanishing twin syndrome is a phenomenon characterized by the disappearance of one of the twin fetuses identified in the early stage of pregnancy. The absent fetus may be partially or completely reabsorbed by the mother. It is believed that chromosomal abnormalities cause the disappearance of the twin, since placental or fetal analyses reflect these abnormalities in the vanished twin, while the results of analyses of the viable twin is normal.
