Abstract

ABDELAZIM, Ibrahim A. et al. Comments on: Delayed interval delivery or asynchronous birth of the second twin: a case report with a good outcome neonatal; Letter to Editor. Ginecol. obstet. Méx. [online]. 2019, vol.87, n.10, pp.706-708.  Epub Aug 20, 2021. ISSN 0300-9041.

We read the article; Delayed interval delivery or asynchronous birth of the second twin: a case report with a good outcome neonatal, published in the Ginecol Obstet Mex. 2019;87(7):475-482. Doi: https://doi.org/10.24245/gom. v87i7.3122, with great interest.

Although, the Hernández-Pérez et al, mentioned that during their successful delayed interval delivery (DID) management and after delivery of the first twin they performed a cervical fence or cerclage to prolong the gestation of the second twin.

Many previous studies mentioned that the use of the cervical cerclage during DID associated with increased risk of infection and did not improve the survival of the second twin.

Hernández-Pérez et al, mentioned that the protocols associated with this type of births are varied and we agree with Hernández-Pérez et al that there is no validated or standard medical protocol for management of such cases. We recently suggested protocol which may be helpful for management of DID and such cases and for the readers (Doi: 10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_5_19).
