Journal of Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical SciencesAcardiac malformation is a well-known complication of monozygotic twins. Pathogenesis involves the pumping of blood from a donor twin to an acardiac twin through its umbilical arteries anastomosing at the level of the placenta through abnormal ...

Possible protective role of the absence of Hyrtl’s anastomosis in monochorionic pregnancy: exploratory case series [PDF]
Frontiers in MedicineObjectiveHyrtl’s anastomosis, an intra-arterial shunt, serves a protective function in singleton placentas. Our team previously documented a case of a monochorionic (MC) twin placenta lacking Hyrtl’s anastomosis. However, research on the impact of absent

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

Early Minimally Invasive Radiofrequency Ablation for Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence at 16 Weeks of Gestation: the First Successful Case in Vietnam. [PDF]
Med ArchBACKGROUND: Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence is a high-risk condition in monochorionic twin pregnancies, in which adverse outcomes of the pump twin are closely related to the duration and magnitude of abnormal perfusion.

BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth, 2021 Background Monochorionic diamniotic triplet pregnancies are rare. Twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence in monochorionic triplet pregnancies is extremely rare, and it is associated with high perinatal morbidity and mortality rates in the “pump fetus.”

Radiofrequency Ablation of Umbilical Cord for Reduction of Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence: A Case Series and a Literature Review [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Neonatology, 2022 Background: Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence is a rare disorder of monochorionic twins in which the placental anastomoses results in transitioning the blood from the normal fetus to the acardiac twin by a reversed arterial flow.

Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence: Assessing the Role of the Correct Imaging Modality in a Rare Clinical Entity. [PDF]
Cureus, 2018 Acardiac twin formation is a rare anomaly. It is one of the most extreme complications of monozygotic twin pregnancies. Such occurrences are brought about when a normal twin donates blood to an abnormal twin through its umbilical arteries via vascular ...
