Rare occurrence of Tetralogy of Fallot in dizygotic twins conceived via in vitro fertilisation

Abstract

An increased incidence of CHD has been noted in twin gestations and in infants conceived using assisted reproductive technologies. However, CHD in these populations remains understudied and the mechanisms underlying these phenomena remain unclear. We present the case of twins conceived via in vitro fertilisation both with Tetralogy of Fallot and additional cardiac and extracardiac malformations.

Keywords: Assisted reproductive technology; Tetralogy of Fallot; twin gestation.
