Gallstones are rarely seen in preterm neonates with most cases reported in term singletons without any identifiable risk factors. Although most cases are self-resolving, neonatal gallstones can be associated with significant complications. We report a case of 34-week gestation monochorionic diamniotic twins with twin anemia-polycythemia sequence (TAPS) where the recipient twin presented with gallstones on the first day of life. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of gallstones in preterm twins following TAPS.
早产新生儿中很少见到胆结石，大多数病例报告于足月单胎且无任何可识别风险因素的情况。尽管大多数病例可自行缓解，但新生儿胆结石可能会伴有严重并发症。我们报告一例孕34周的单绒毛膜双羊膜囊双胞胎，患有双胎输血综合征（TAPS），其中受血儿双胞胎在出生第一天就出现了胆结石。据我们所知，这是首例TAPS后早产双胞胎出现胆结石的病例。
