Monochorionic twins
text:
Monochorionic twins are monozygotic (identical) twins that share the same placenta. If the placenta is shared by more than two twins, these are monochorionic multiples. Monochorionic twins occur in 0.3% of all pregnancies. Seventy-five percent of monozygotic twin pregnancies are monochorionic; the remaining 25% are dichorionic diamniotic. If the placenta divides, this takes place before the third day after fertilization.
