1829 Edinb. Med. & Surg. Jrnl. 32 116 Acardia, heart wanting.

1873 Indiana Jrnl. Med. 4 513 The acardia becomes simply an appendage to the healthy fœtus.

1895 G. R. Lockwood Man. Pract. Med. ii. 277 There may be acardia, double heart, bifid apex, or absence of the pericardium.

1917 W. L. Williams Vet. Obstetr. 57 When the heart of the normal fetus ceases to beat or the umbilic cord between the fetus and the acardia ruptures, the latter ceases to live.

1940 Lancet 28 Sept. 408/2 Occasionally the acardia is represented by a mere shapeless mass of tissue.

1982 Jrnl. Ultrasound in Med. Jan. 13 Acardia must be distinguished from sacrococcygeal teratoma, omphalocele and macerated fetus.

2010 Jrnl. Perinatal Med. 38 247 Acardia was not associated with twin gestation until the reports of Mery in 1720 and Winslow in 1740.
