Cerclage, tocolysis and antibiotics for premature rupture of the membranes in previable twins. A case report
J Reprod Med.

Abstract
Premature rupture of the membranes developed in a pregnancy with a previable twin gestation. In the absence of infection, aggressive management of premature rupture of the membranes, consisting of cerclage, tocolysis and antibiotics, salvaged the second twin by delaying delivery for five weeks.
