Abstract
This article reports a case of prenatal ultrasonographic diagnosis and monitoring of the twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) sequence pump twin and describes progression of the disorder to a severe heart failure and fetal death. Genetic analyses were also performed for both fetuses by array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH).
