The baseline/initial scan revealed one alive issue consistent with the gestationa age of 23 weeks with one intrauterine death at gestational age of 18 weeks. Expectant management with regular follow up and monitoring was planned for the patient which included frequent antenatal visits, ultrasonographic surveillance and monitoring of coagulation profile, after proper conunselling and discussion with the patient.
