ABSTRACT
Stillbirth is much more frequent among multiples than among singletons, and single fetal demise in multiples is different from singleton stillbirths, in terms of etiology, fetalmaternal problems and fetofetal effects. Population-based series reporting on stillbirth rates among twin or higher-order multiple pregnancies usually include cases of single fetal demise as well as stillbirth of the entire set1. Several important aspects of single fetal death in multiple pregnancies are discussed in detail elsewhere in this volume (Chapters 97 and 103). This chapter focuses specifically on the management of this rather common complication.
