This study aimed to explore the difference in placental characteristics among three types of selective fetal growth restriction in monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancies and found the earlier onset time of sFGR II and III might be due to their higher placental territory discordance.

The association between VCI and TTTS may be overestimated and high-quality studies with a representative sample are needed in further research, but an association betweenVCI and BWD and sIUGR is suggested.
