Fetal MRI of thoraco-omphalopagus conjoined twins.
Abdullah H, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-219793 Description Conjoined twins are very rare with incidence of 1 per 250 000 live births. Fetal MRI is an important adjunct to ultrasound particularly in evaluation of complex fetal anomalies and organ positions. 3 This case report illustrates our first experience in MRI fetal of conjoined twins with the current available sequences....
متن کاملOmphalopagus conjoined twins: ultrafast MR imaging findings.
Conjoined twins are a rare and often catastrophic obstetrical event. Although ultrasonography is widely used in the diagnosis of conjoined twins, it may fail to demonstrate the details in fetuses with complex anomalies, especially during late pregnancy. We present an omphalopagus conjoined twins case evaluated by HASTE magnetic resonance imaging, which showed the conjunction site and cranial an...
متن کاملMinimally Conjoined Omphalopagus Twins with a Body Stalk Anomaly
Introduction This report will discuss a case of minimally conjoined omphalopagus twins (MCOTs) with a body stalk anomaly (BSA). Case Report We experienced monochorionic diamniotic (MD) twins born at 31 weeks. One infant was suspicious of BSA before birth, and another infant was normal. But normal infant had anal atresia with small intestine which was inserted behind the umbilicus. Twins had ver...
متن کاملAnesthesia for emergency separation of omphalopagus conjoined twins.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The rate of mortality during the surgical separation of conjoined twins in the neonatal period is 50% and can reach up to 75% if it occurs in emergency situations. The planning of the surgical separation procedure is detailed and involves imaging assessment, evaluation of cross-circulation and even other surgical preparation procedures, such as skin expansion. CASE R...
متن کاملMRI of omphalopagus conjoined twins with a Dandy-Walker malformation: prenatal true FISP and HASTE sequences.
Conjoined twins are an extremely rare congenital malformation without any known genetic predisposition. Omphalopagus twins are the second most common variety of conjoined twins and usually are joined at the umbilicus. We present omphalopagus conjoined twins demonstrated with true FISP (fast imaging with steady-state procession) and HASTE (half- Fourier acquisition single-shot turbo spin-echo) m...
