Abstract

Infants born at 22–23 weeks rarely survive, and most develop severe complications, especially in the case of multiple births. This age is considered the threshold for active intervention. We report the survival of twins born at 22 2/7 weeks gestation. Recently, advances in neonatal care have improved infant survival.
