Abstract
Therapeutic amniocentesis is currently used to treat hydramnios secondary to twin-twin transfusion syndrome. We present a case of prenatal gangrene resulting from hyperviscosity in the recipient partner of live-born twins in a pregnancy complicated by acute hydramnios from twin-twin transfusion syndrome and managed with aggressive amniocentesis.
