Second twins should be managed more carefully during intranatal and early neonatal periods. Twin pregnancy can be effectively managed in a tertiary health care facility to optimize maternal and fetal care for improving perinatal outcome.<o:p></o:p> Perinatal mortality of monochorionic twins is much higher than that of dichorionic twins. Antepartum diagnosis of the type of placentation will help in identifying the twins at risk for twin to twin transfusion syndrome, discordant growth and greater perinatal mortality. Good antenatal care, early diagnosis, recognition and treatment of antenatal risk factors, prevention of preterm labour and close fetal surveillance, particularly of monochorionic twins and prompt therapeutic intervention of TTTS are necessary to reduce perinatal mortality. Strict intrapartum monitoring, experienced obstetricians to conduct delivery, liberal use of LSCS along with good neonatal intensive care especially for premature babies, will lead to better outcome.<o:p></o:p>
