Summary: Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita is a clinically and etiologically heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by presence of contractures involving at least two different body areas. It is observed in one in every 3000−5000 live births. A case of singleton arthrogryposis in a spontaneous monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy is reported. Diagnosis was established after morphological ultrasound. There were no further complications during pregnancy. After cesarean delivery, diagnosis of amyoplasia involving the four limbs was confirmed. Newborn is currently undergoing motor rehabilitation. The higher risk of singleton arthrogryposis in monochorionic twin pregnancies is documented and appears to be related with vascular changes early in the course of pregnancy. In amyoplasia, some degree of disability and dependency is expected, even with postnatal rehabilitation.

Tem uma incidência de 1 em cada 3000−5000 recém- -nascidos. É reportado um caso clínico de artrogripose unifetal em gravidez gemelar monocoriónica biamniótica espontânea. O diagnóstico foi estabelecido após ecografia morfológica, tendo a gravidez decorrido sem outras intercorrências. Após parto por cesariana, confirmou-se o diagnóstico de amioplasia envolvendo os quatro membros. O recém-nascido encontra-se atualmente em processo de reabilitação motora. Está documentado o aumento da incidência de artrogripose unifetal na gravidez gemelar monocoriónica, que parece relacionar-se com alterações vasculares na gravidez inicial. Em situações de amioplasia, é de prever a manutenção de algum grau de dependência e incapacidade motora, mesmo com reabilitação pós-natal.Unidade Local de Saúde de Santo António2019-01-02info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25753/BirthGrowthMJ.v27.i4.13065eng2183-9417Brás, RafaelVeloso, HelenaMoleiro, MariaRodrigues, SofiaInocencio, GonçaloMota, CéuSoares, GabrielaRodrigues, Maria CéuBraga, Jorgeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-07T09:43:21Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/13065Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T14:39:37.330003Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
