AB  - The twin reversed-arterial-perfusion sequence (TRAP) is a severe complication of 
      monochorionic twin pregnancies characterized by the hemodynamic dependence of a 
      "recipient" twin from a "pump" twin. The recipient twin exhibits lethal 
      abnormalities including acardia and acephaly. The pump twin has a mortality rate 
      of 50% as a result of high-output heart failure. We present a case of a 
      24-year-old female, gravida 2, para 2, with monochorionic diamniotic triplet 
      pregnancy. The sonographic examination at 18 weeks' gestation revealed 
      acardiac-acephalus fetus. Reversed arterial perfusion sequence was confirmed with 
      Doppler sonography. Postpartum autopsy examination of placenta and acardiac fetus 
      (acardius anceps) was detailed described.
