Conjoined twinning is one of the most uncommon congenital anomalies. Maintenance in an intensive care setting during this time allows for close monitoring, stabilisation, and nutritional supplementation of the infants as necessary to optimise preoperative growth and development. The birth of conjoined twins is a very difficult and dramatic moment for parents. It is also a very difficult situati...

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...

Reliability has become a serious concern as systems embrace nanometer technologies. Current reliability enhancement techniques cause slowdown in processor operation. In this work, we propose a novel approach that organizes redundancy in a special way to provide high degree of fault tolerance. Our approach improves performance by reliably adapting the system clock frequency during run time, base...

MRI Department, onjoined twins, rare variants of monozygotic twins, result from an incomplete division of Nanavati Hospital, C the embryonic disk. Conjoined twinning occurs once in every 50,000–100,000 births. Mumbai, India Cephalothoracopagus, a very rare variant of conjoined twins occurs once in every three-million births. Early prenatal diagnosis is desirable, given the poor prognosis. Corre...

Conjoined twins are rare variants of monozygotic twins, which result from an incomplete late division of the embryonic disk. Here we report the rarest case of conjoined twins - the male cephalothoracopagus janiceps disymmetros - born in prenatal week 30, from the archive of the Department of Teratology of the Institute of Experimental Medicine AS CR in Prague. The crown-rump length of each twin...
