N2 - OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of entry method and access diameter at fetoscopic surgery for twin-twin transfusion syndrome in twin pregnancies with at least one survivor. The outcomes evaluated were prelabour rupture of membranes (PROM) and birth <4 weeks, preterm birth (PTB) <28 weeks, and latency to birth.METHODS: A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data of consecutive laser procedures from 6 centers was performed. Three entry methods (sheath + trocar; cannula + trocar; cannula + Seldinger) and 6 access diameters (2.3, 3.0, 3.3, 3.5, 3.8, 4.0 mm) were used. Exclusion criteria were subsequent invasive interventions, termination of pregnancy or double fetal death after laser. Multivariate analysis was performed to determine risk factors for the study outcomes.RESULTS: Six hundred seventy three fetoscopic laser cases were analyzed. The use of different entry methods and access diameters did not affect PROM or birth <4 weeks, or latency from laser to birth. Access diameter was associated with PTB <28 weeks. Cervical length was associated with PROM and birth <4 weeks, and latency from laser to birth.CONCLUSION: Instrument choice at fetoscopic laser procedures did not affect outcomes <4 weeks. Access diameter may affect the likelihood for PTB <28 weeks. Cervical length is critically associated with obstetrical outcomes following laser surgery.
