Parasitic twins, a specific type of conjoined twins [6], occur when one twin ceases development during gestation [7] and becomes vestigial to the fully formed dominant twin, called the autositic twin. The underdeveloped twin is called parasitic because it is only partially formed, is not functional, or is wholly dependent on the autositic twin. In most cases, the phenotype of parasitic twins is...

INTRODUCTION Cases of conjoined twins occur so rarely that it is important to learn as much as possible from each case. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of 9-hour-old, female, Nigerian dicephalus parapagus conjoined twins discordant for anencephaly diagnosed only after the birth of the twins. The anencephalic twin was stillborn while the normal one died within 9 hours of birth from cardiop...
A case of vaginally delivered stillborn female thoracopagus conjoined twins is presented. Each twlin had a cleft lip and cleft palate. They shared a common pericardial sac and a common abdominal cavity. The liver was conjoined, and the small bowel was common to both twins. One twin was asplenic. Although the twins were monozygotic, their viscera were neither identical nor mirror-image to each o...

Although thoracopagus twins joined at the upper chest are the most common type of conjoined twins, the separation surgery in these cases has a higher mortality rate. Here, we describe an anesthetic management approach for the separation of thoracopagus conjoined twins sharing parts of a congenitally defective heart and liver. We emphasize the importance of vigilant intraoperative hemodynamic mo...
BACKGROUND Within an 8-month period, an unprecedented and historical first in Queensland, Australia, the perioperative nurses were members of teams involved in the surgical separation of two sets of conjoined twins. Little is known about the (dis)stress that some of these perioperative nurses experienced nor how best to support them during such experiences. AIM The aim of this paper is to rep...
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...
We present two unusual cases of conjoined xiphopagus where separation was successfully performed. The first pair had a common heart and the second pair shared a common liver. The classification, embryology of conjoined twins and results of the surgery are discussed.
mild congestive phenomena. In such cases it appears justifiable to rely upon physiotherapeutic measures while in bed, and early ambulation, to prevent venous thromboembolism. In the case of older patients with severe congestive failure, however, oral anticoagulant drug therapy can be expected to prevent venous thromboembolism after the second week, and such prophylaxis is clearly indicated if i...
