Twin reversed arterial perfusion syndrome in historical sources


Abstract

Author(s): Witold Malinowski (ABCDF)

Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) syndrome is a rare complication of multiple, monozygotic and monochorionic pregnancy. It is a type of chronic twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, where, next to normally developing donor twin, there is another recipient twin that grows in spite of no heartbeat. The paper is a historical note of twin reversed arterial perfusion syndrome.
