  • Title: Defining the high-risk nature of triplet pregnancies.
    Author: Oleszczuk AK, Oleszczuk JJ, Keith LG.
    Journal: Int J Fertil Womens Med; 2002; 47(4):182-90. PubMed ID: 12199415.
    Abstract:
    Triplet pregnancies are by nature rare. Assisted reproductive technologies have multiplied their rate of occurrence in the last two decades. Whether spontaneous or induced, triplet pregnancies present obstetric and neonatal-and then often lifelong-medical problems severalfold more often than singletons, or even twins. The major cause of problems for triplet gestations stems from preterm delivery and low birth weight.
