A Rare Case of Cephalothoracophagus - Conjoined Twins Fused at Head and Thorax Terminated at 13 Weeks of Gestation

Abstract: Conjoined twins represent one of the rarest forms of twin gestation. They occur in roughly 1 in every 200 identical twin pregnancies and are always identical. The incidence ranges from 1 in 50?000 to 1 in 100?000 live births [1]. Because this situation carries high risk, early diagnosis and management of delivery is extremely important.
