Abstract:
The incidence of multiple pregnancies has increased significantly in recent years, which brought an adverse effect on pregnancy outcomes. Reducing fetuses of multiple pregnancies can improve the outcome of multiple births by reducing the number of fetuses in pregnancy and creating a better living environment for the remaining fetuses. Methods of multifetal pregnancy reduction and application of ultrasound during the operation were reviewed in this article.
