Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein levels in a triplet pregnancy with 2 papyraceous fetuses.

H D Taubert, G Bastert, J S Dericks-Tan.   

Abstract

Serum Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) was found to rise to exceedingly high levels in a case of triplet pregnancy after two fetuses died in the 21st week of gestation. The surviving infant was born in the 36th week accompanied by the two fetus papyracei. By the time the process of mummification of the two dead fetuses appeared to be complete on ultrasound, the maternal AFP level had returned to the normal range for singleton pregnancies. HCG, hPL, and estriol and the coagulation profile remained within the normal range throughout the pregnancy.
