Twin Acardiac: Case Reported From Ethiopia [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports (discontinued)
Acardiac twinning is a rare congenital anomaly in monozygotic twin pregnancies, caused by abnormal placental vascular anastomosis. We present a case of monochorionic twinning: Twin A was a heterogeneous mass with no head or cardiac activity, while Twin B

Radiofrequency Ablation and Intrauterine Transfusion in a Delayed Diagnosed Acardiac Twin Pregnancy [PDF]

Case Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2023
Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence or acardiac twin is a rare and severe complication of monochorionic multiple pregnancies. Acardiac twin accounts for 10% of all TRAP sequences, which is the most morphologically developed acardius.

Successful ablation of acardiac twin with Histoacryl [PDF]

Taiwanese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2016
Objective: Acardiac twin occurs in 1:35,000 pregnancies. Several techniques have been described to treat this condition. Some techniques have been suggested as golden standard; however, new are still being tried.

Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence Diagnosed Late in the Third Trimester: A Case Report and Literature Review [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
The twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence is a rare complication associated with monochorionic twins. It is characterized by blood flow from the umbilical artery of the normal (pump) twin to the umbilical artery of the abnormal (acardiac) twin

A case of Acardiac Acephalus fetus in spontaneous triplet pregnancy, managed conservatively: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Spontaneous triplet pregnancies are rare, with the incidence being 1 in 7000. Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence or acardiac twinning is a rare complication of monochorionic pregnancies. In this disorder there is an acardiac twin

Vanishing acardiac twin with TRAP syndrome: A case report [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Acardiac twin is a rare complication of monochorionic twin pregnancy. We present case of a 24 years-old primigravida with monochorionic pregnancy having an amorphous acardiac twin diagnosed during routine first trimester ultrasound scan.

Woman with term presentation of acaridac twin pregnancy with three cesarean section scars: a case report [PDF]

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence is the most severe and specific complication in monochorionic twin pregnancies, described by vascular anastomosis and partial or complete lack of cardiac development in one twin.

Managing TRAP Sequence Conservatively: A Case Report of Full‐Term Pregnancy With Favorable Outcome [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
Acardiac twinning, also known as Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence, is a rare anomaly seen exclusively in monochorionic twin pregnancies. It occurs due to abnormal placental vascular anastomoses, allowing retrograde perfusion from healthy “

Assessment of Learning Curve for Radiofrequency Ablation in Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence: A Simulation Model Study. [PDF]

Prenat Diagn
ABSTRACT Objective This study characterized the procedural learning curve of novice practitioners in mastering radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in a simulated twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence (TRAPS) model. Method Twelve novices practiced RFA in a TRAPS model, which was evaluated for validity.

Management of twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence with microwave ablation: A case report and review of the literature. [PDF]

J Clin Ultrasound
Microwave ablation may be more effective at managing TRAP sequence given the technical properties of the treatment modality. A trans‐thoracic approach to the umbilical vessel confluence within the abdomen of the pump twin may decrease heat dispersion and post‐procedural hemorrhage.
