Monochorionic Diamniotic (MCDA) Twins: Quick Facts What are they? Identical twins sharing one placenta (chorion) but each with their own amniotic sac (diamniotic). About 70-80% of identical twin pregnancies! Risks: Higher chance of TTTS (twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome), where blood flow imbalances occur. Close monitoring via ultrasounds is key.
