--- abstract: 'Acardia (Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence) is a rare and one of the most bizarre congenital malformations occurring in multiple pregnancies. It affects 1 in 35,000 pregnancies. Usually one twin shows absence of heart and other is structurally normal. The acardiac twin presents with many bizarre anomalies such as lack of head, thorax and upper extremities. We report a case of autopsy study of acardiac twin with severe malformations. The case has been presented for its rarity.' altloc: - http://www.ojhas.org/issue46/2013-2-15.html chapter: ~ commentary: ~ commref: ~ confdates: ~ conference: ~ confloc: ~ contact_email: ~ creators_id: - ~ - ~ - ~ - shwetajoshi4422@yahoo.com creators_name: - family: Wader given: JV honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Kumbhar given: S honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Whawal given: V honourific: '' lineage: '' - family: Joshi given: SS honourific: '' lineage: '' date: 2013-08-25 date_type: published datestamp: 2014-02-25 12:42:17 department: ~ dir: disk0/00/00/91/63 edit_lock_since: ~ edit_lock_until: 0 edit_lock_user: ~ editors_id: - Kakkilaya BS editors_name: - family: Kakkilaya given: Srinivas honourific: Dr lineage: '' eprint_status: archive eprintid: 9163 fileinfo: /style/images/fileicons/application_pdf.png;/9163/1/2013-2-15.pdf full_text_status: public importid: ~ institution: ~ isbn: ~ ispublished: pub issn: ~ item_issues_comment: [] item_issues_count: ~ item_issues_description: [] item_issues_id: [] item_issues_reported_by: [] item_issues_resolved_by: [] item_issues_status: [] item_issues_timestamp: [] item_issues_type: [] keywords: Acardia; Congenital malformations; Autopsy lastmod: 2014-02-25 12:42:17 latitude: ~ longitude: ~ metadata_visibility: show note: ~ number: 2(15) pagerange: ~ pubdom: TRUE publication: Online Journal of Health and Allied Sciences publisher: Kakkilaya BS refereed: TRUE referencetext: "1.\tDhall U, Kayalvizhi I, Magu S.
