ABSTRACT
We reviewed the sonographic features of rare complications with monochorionic twins and we correlated these features with the pathologic findings. The complications, including the twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence, the twin embolization syndrome, the conjoined twins and umbilical cord entanglement. A better understanding of these complications can aid making an accurate prenatal diagnosis and predicting the fetal outcome.
