    Abstract:
    It should have been tested if a reduction of perinatal morbidity and mortality of twin pregnancies is possible by starting intensive care earlier. 68 gemini pregnancies of the report period I (1978-80) which were not diagnosed early and 66 gemini pregnancies of the report period II (1982-84) with early diagnosis by sonography-screening have been compared. The prenatal care programme carried out both in out-patients clinic and inside the hospital is illustrated. Perinatal mortality declined from 5.88 per cent in report period I to 3.79 per cent in report period II.
