    Rhesus isoimmunization in twin gestation is rare but increases risks for both mother and fetus. This study presents three cases and reviews challenges in managing these high-risk pregnancies.

    Area of Science:

    • Perinatology
    • Maternal-Fetal Medicine
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Twin gestations carry inherent perinatal risks.
    • Rhesus (Rh) isoimmunization poses additional significant hazards.
    • The combination of twinning and Rh isoimmunization is exceptionally rare.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report cases of Rh isoimmunization in twin gestations.
    • To discuss the unique challenges associated with these pregnancies.
    • To review existing literature on this rare condition.

    Main Methods:

    • Case series presentation.
    • Literature review of rhesus isoimmunization in twin pregnancies.
    • Analysis of clinical management and outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • Three cases of rhesus isoimmunized twin gestations are presented.
    • Specific management issues and complications were identified.
    • Literature review highlights the rarity and complexity of these cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Rh isoimmunization in twin gestation is a critical condition requiring specialized care.
    • Early diagnosis and multidisciplinary management are crucial.
    • Further research is needed to optimize outcomes for these high-risk pregnancies.
