Abstract
#Mirrorsyndrome is a maternal condition which develops as a result of
#fetalcondition, the main feature being edema; both mother and fetus
appear as mirror image of each other. Initially it was described as
maternal edema in response to fetal edema due to Rhesus isoimmunisation.
Subsequently it has been found in #fetalhydrops due to both #immune and
non immune causes. The maternal condition is likely to improve after
fetal treatment, demise or delivery. One case of mirror syndrome due to
non immune hydrops is being presented who recovered completely
after delivery. The cause of this syndrome is still not understood
probably it is #placentalhypertrophy resulting in high hCG levels. Both
mother
and fetus are at risk in this condition.
