چکیده

Acardia twin is a rare, unique complication of monochorionic pregnancy. A 2.6% incidence among twins has been cited. In such complications with abnormal or non-functional heart perfused by its co-twin via placental arterial anastomosis. The acardia poorly developed and upper torso. We present case in which the fetal demise one fetus pregnancy diagnosed first trimester, but patient wishes to continue This resulted unexpected occurrence an after delivery along normal twin, placenta was single. review presented on therapeutic opportunities necessity thorough sonographic evaluation multifetal pregnancies.

Twin reverse arterial perfusion sequence.

Twin reverse arterial perfusion sequence occurs in approximately one percent of monochorionic twins. This condition is always fatal for the recipient twin and carries a high mortality rate for the pump twin. Various treatment options are described, but management is continually evolving with the publication of new data. We report an acardiac acephalic monochorionic twin who was diagnosed at 31 ...

Special forms in twin pregnancy - ACARDIAC TWIN/ Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence

UNLABELLED Twin pregnancy generally represents a high-risk pregnancy, but monozygous twin pregnancy is a real challenge for the obstetrician due to the serious complications that may occur during its evolution. A very rare, severe complication of monozygous twin pregnancy, which we recently dealt with in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of the University Emergency Hospital Bucharest, wa...

Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence / Sequence Acephalus Acardiac Fetus

Twin reverse arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence occurs only in a setting of a monochorionic gestation and complicates approximately 1% of monochorionic twin gestation. In the TRAP sequence the acardiac / acephalic twin receives all of its blood supply from the normal “pump” twin.

Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion (trap) Sequence: Biology and Management

In the usual setting, blood from the placenta enters the fetal circulation through the umbilical veins and exits via the umbilical artery. Very rarely (1% of MC twins or 1:35,000 births), retrograde or reversed arterial perfusion takes place, from the placenta through the umbilical artery of one of the twins, and the twin with the reversed flow receives all of its blood supply from a normal co-...

Diagnostic dilemma in twin-reversed arterial perfusion sequence.

The twin-reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence is a rare complication of twin pregnancies. The anatomically normal twin is termed the pump twin; the recipient twin is malformed and is known as acardiac twin. It functions as a parasite to the pump twin and receives retrograde blood flow of poorly oxygenated blood from the pump twin via the abdominal aorta, resulting in a wide spectrum of m...
