Abstract

Acardiac twin is a rare complication of monochorionic twin pregnancy. We present case of a 24 years-old primigravida with monochorionic pregnancy having an amorphous acardiac twin diagnosed during routine first trimester ultrasound scan. She was managed expectantly since there were no signs of hemodynamic compromise in the normal twin with close ultrasound fetal surveillance using gray scale and color Doppler ultrasound. Spontaneous regression of vascularity with reduced size of the acardiac twin was seen subsequently.
