Fig. 2

The placental discordance of four groups of monochorionic twin pregnancies. The discordance of placental shares between twins was defined as (individual placenta mass of the larger twin –individual placenta mass of the smaller twin) × 100% / (individual placenta mass of the larger twin). Statistics are graphically presented as the median (horizontal bar), 25 and 75 percentile (box), and ± 2 standard deviations (whiskers). Means of each group of data are also indicated in numeric figures. Grouping: Group 1: TTTS with sIUGR, Group 2: TTTS without sIUGR, Group 3: No TTTS with sIUGR, Group 4: No TTTS without sIUGR. Abbreviations: TTTS: twin-twin transfusion syndrome, sIUGR: selective intrauterine growth restriction, MC: monochorionic. *: P value < 0.05
