Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed 84:F111-6. 2001..Monozygotic twins are at greater risk of dying and of serious morbidity than dizygotic twins, and both are at greater risk than singletons. This is only partly explained by the higher proportion of low birthweight infants among twins...

Department of Public Health, University of Liverpool, Liverpool L69 3GB, UK
Arch Dis Child Fetal Neonatal Ed 87:F122-4. 2002..Among twins, if one twin suffers a fetal death or dies in infancy, the prevalence of cerebral palsy in the surviving co-twin is considerably increased, and those from like-sex pairs are particularly at high risk...
