English term or phrase: pump twin
Това е заглавие на глава от книга (но е само аналогия, иначе не се говори за близнаци). Значението на термина е обяснено тук: http://www.childrenshospital.org/az/Site1794/mainpageS1794P0...

What is Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion?
Twin reversed arterial perfusion (TRAP) occurs in identical twin pregnancies when one twin has an absent or non-functioning heart (acardiac/acephalic) and receives all of its blood from the normally functioning and developing "pump twin". The twins are joined by a large blood vessel between their umbilical cords. The pump twin's heart works extra hard to pump to the acardiac twin, increasing the pump twin's risk of heart failure and death. The acardiac twin has no chance for survival. In addition, if both twins are in the same amniotic sac (usually), they may get entangled and twist the umbilical cord resulting in sudden death.
