Prematurity remains the foremost cause of
neonatal mortality and morbidity

women who present with preterm labor (PTL) is
the distinction between true and false PTL, since
fewer than 15% of those presenting with
threatened PTL will actually deliver within 7 days
of presentation or before 35 weeks gestation.
One of the most widely investigated tools for the
prediction of PTD in women with a singleton
pregnancy and threatened PTL is sonographic
measurement of cervical length (CL)
there is only limited information regarding the
performance of CL in women with twin
pregnancies who present with threatened PTL
(P) opulation /problem: Overall, 218 women with a twin
pregnancy
and 1077 women with a singleton pregnancy, who
presented with PTL
