✦ Synopsis
Abstract
A monochorionic diamniotic triplet pregnancy was diagnosed by sonographic scan at 9 weeks of gestation. The three embryos appeared to share the same trophoblast, with two of them sharing the same amniotic sac. The two amniotic sacs were divided by a thin membrane, with no chorionic projection within it, and each amniotic sac presented a single yolk sac. Only few cases of nontrichorionic‐triamniotic triplets have been reported in the literature. Although the diagnosis was reached using the two‐dimensional ultrasound, the complementary use of three‐dimensional ultrasound helped in confirming the diagnosis, and in offering the couple an adequate counseling. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
