Abstract
Delayed delivery is a relatively new term used to describe the delivery of one Fetus after premature delivery of the first fetus. We describe a case w here we used tocolysis and antibiotics to prolong a twin pregnancy for 35 d ays with excellent fetal outcome, after chorioamnionitis had caused the abo rtion of the first twin at 21 weeks gestation.
