Anencephaly and twins: prenatal ultrasound and estriol.

Abstract
A rare case of anencephalic twin pregnancy diagnosed prenatally with ultrasonography is reported. It is the only case found in the literature in which maternal 24-hour urinary estriol is documented in an anencephalic twin pregnancy. Ultrasound diagnosis and obstetric problems associated with such cases are discussed briefly.
