Color Doppler reveals abnormal arterial flow and suggests novel venous return in an acardiac twin.
Case Report (n=1)
Color Doppler ultrasonography can elucidate the abnormal arterial and venous hemodynamics in acardiac twin pregnancies.

May aid hemodynamic assessment in acardiac twins; leaves open venous return pathways.
The use of color Doppler sonography has expanded our understanding of the normal and abnormal pregnancy. A case is presented here in which color Doppler imaging was utilized to confirm a long‐held theory concerning the strikingly abnormal dynamics of arterial flow to an acardiac twin and observations are also presented concerning the possible route of venous return contrary to presumed theories established within the literature.

Crade et al. (1992) conducted a case report in Acardiac twin pregnancy (n=1). Color Doppler ultrasonography was evaluated on Arterial flow dynamics and venous return route. Color Doppler ultrasonography confirmed abnormal arterial flow dynamics to an acardiac twin and suggested a possible route of venous return contrary to established theories.
