One hundred and twelve patients with spontaneous twin pregnancy (a study group) were examined. All the patients of this group were divided into 2 subgroups according to the choriality: 1) 26 pregnant women with a monochorial diamniotic twin (Subgroup 1) and 86 pregnant women with a dichorial diamniotic twin (Subgroup 2). A comparison group consisted of 20 pregnant women with spontaneous singleton pregnancy. All the pregnant women underwent ultrasonography in the third trimester. 221 neonatal infants born to the patients of the study group and 20 babies born to those in the comparison group were also examined. At the birth of babies, their gender, major physical development parameters (weight, head and chest circumferences), correspondence to the gestation period, and 1- and 5-minute Apgar scores were kept in mind. Mathematical data processing yielded percentile tables to determine anthropometric characteristics in different gestation periods in the fetuses and newborn infants born to women with twins.
