Monozygotic triplet pregnancy following transfer of frozen-thawed embryos.

We report a case of monozygotic triplet pregnancy after the transfer of three frozen-thawed embryos. The outcome of the pregnancy was the birth of three healthy normal boys. The pregnancy was a monochorionic triamniotic triplet pregnancy. This is the first such case of triplets, although it seems that zygote splitting is significantly more common than normal in patients undergoing in-vitro fertilization.

[Monozygotic triplet pregnancy after transfer of frozen embryos].

We report a case of monozygotic triplet pregnancy after transfer of 3 frozen thawed embryos. The pregnancy ended by the birth of 3 healthy normal boys and all the analysis showed that it was really a monochorionic triamniotic triplet pregnancy, that as far as we know is the first reported one induced by frozen thawed technics. We shall discuss: the etiology of monozygotic pregnancies after IVF; the sonographic diagnosis of placentation; the obstetrical care which allowed the birth of 3 healthy normal boys.
