Twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence: acardiac-acephalic twin - a case report

Acardiac-acephalic twin is one of the bizarre complications of monozygotic, monochorionic twin pregnancies. It is commonly referred to as Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP) sequence, in which the primary malformation is the lack of a well -defined cardiac structure in one twin (acardiac), which is kept alive by its structurally normal co-twin (pump twin) through abnormal placental vascular...
