Gestational group B streptococcal infection in two twin pregnancies
Abstract: Twin pregnancies represent an interesting pattern in which selective infection of one gestational sac over the other can occur. Despite the ubiquity of Group B streptococcus (GBS), only a few cases documenting twin gestational GBS infections have been reported. We describe two cases of gestational GBS infection in twin pregnancies (a monochorionic/diamniotic pregnancy and a dichorionic/diamniotic pregnancy) both resulting in the death of one twin.
