- Abstract
Cord entanglement in monochorionic monoamniotic (MCMA) pregnancy with a lethal discordant anomaly or twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence can lead to strangulation, preterm labor and demise of the healthy twin[1]. Cord to deceased twin is clearly visible as a thin band. gl The fourth case was a MCMA pregnancy complicated by cord entanglement, with one twin diagnosed with acrania, which presented at 17 weeks' gestation. GRAPH: Videoclip S1 Intraoperative fetoscopic video showing cord ablation and division at 22 weeks' gestation in monochorionic monoamniotic twin pregnancy complicated by twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence with cord strangulation at the placental insertion site.
