A twin growth disparity is a closely related term to twin growth discordance. In a twin growth disparity, there may be a significant size or weight difference between the two fetuses but estimated fetal weight of smaller twin does not fall below the 10th centile. ( In contrast to twin growth discordance where the estimated fetal weight (EFW) of the smaller twin should fall under the 10th centile.)
