Résumé
We aimed to compare features of preeclampsia between twin and singleton pregnancies. In this retrospective case-control study, women with twin pregnancies who were diagnosed with preeclampsia were matched to singleton pregnancies controls. Ninety-four women with twin gestation diagnosed with preeclampsia were compared to singleton pregnancies with preeclampsia. Twin pregnancies were diagnosed at an earlier mean gestational age (33.23 ± 7.32 vs 35.93 ± 3.52 weeks, Preeclampsia in women with twin pregnancies is diagnosed at an earlier gestational age with lower level of hypertension and a higher rate of thrombocytopenia in comparison to singleton pregnancies.
