TWIN PREGNANCY AFTER ORTHOTOPIC LIVER-TRANSPLANTATION, WITH EXACERBATION OF CHRONIC GRAFT-REJECTION

We report the sixth pregnancy and the first occurrence of twins after liver transplantation, and the second time cyclosporine was used in pregnancy for that indication. The pregnancy was interrupted at 33 weeks, menstrual age, for exacerbation of chronic graft rejection and intrauterine growth retardation of both twins with possible fetal compromise. The neonatal outcomes were good without any detected anomalies except for some neurodevelopmental problems in one twin at the long-term follow-up. The mother underwent a second liver transplant shortly after delivery.
