Fetal Reduction: This is offered to patients with higher order multifetal gestation (Triplets / quadruplets) to improve survival chances of other foetuses and to improve pregnancy outcome. The procedure is also offered as a selective reduction procedure in Twin gestation when one of the foetuses show abnormality that is known to cause severe disability after birth in the affected foetus. The procedure is offered between 11-12 weeks of pregnancy.)
