The incidence of multifetal pregnancies is increasing exponentially, in part, due to assisted reproductive technologies. This edition is devoted to the contemporary management of those pregnancies, with a focus on evidence-based medicine. In addition to those topics that are frequently discussed in the context of multifetal pregnancies, like prematurity and maternal morbidity, we have also included chapters on nutrition, intrapartum management and long-term outcomes.
