“The Strange Case of Dr Pump and Mr Acardiac”: The Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP) Sequence in Two Monochorionic Monoamniotic (MCMA) Twin Pregnancies—Diagnosis, Prognosis and Management: Review of Literature [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2023 The Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP) Sequence is an extremely rare complication of monochorionic twin pregnancies, with one severely malformed twin (the “acardiac”) lacking autonomous placental blood supply and being perfused by the co-twin (the ...

Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence: A case report and a brief literature review [PDF]
Radiology Case Reports, 2022 Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence is rare in monochorionic twin pregnancies. TRAP sequence is distinct from other multifetal pregnancies in that one of the twins has normal anatomy while the other twin has a varied amount of characteristic

Spontaneous triplet pregnancy and trap sequence, case report. [PDF]
BMC Pregnancy Childbirth, 2019 Background Spontaneous multiple pregnancies are rare, and the incidence of spontaneous triplet pregnancy is about 1/4000. TRAP (Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion) sequence has acardiac foetus with non-viable multiple anomalies, and there is a pump foetus ...
