ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To study the perinatal complications of late preterm twins (LPTs) versus early term twins (ETTs).@*METHODS@#A retrospective analysis was performed for the complications of 246 LPTs, 496 ETTs, and their mothers. The risk factors for late preterm birth were analyzed. According to gestational age, the twins were divided into five groups 34-34@*RESULTS@#Maternal hypertension, maternal thrombocytopenia, placenta previa, and premature rupture of membranes were independent risk factors for late preterm birth in twins (@*CONCLUSIONS@#Compared with ETTs, LPTs have an increased incidence of perinatal complications. The incidence of perinatal complications is associated with gestational ages in the LPTs and ETTs.
