Abstract
|
|
|
|
One of the most interesting congenital malformations is a conjoined twin. Conjoined twins are a rare occurrence in obstetric practice. More commonly known as Siamese twins, this phenomenon is shrouded in mystery and considered a curiosity by general public. Current technology is providing a basis for earlier diagnosis and a better prognosis. Frequently, the twins are born dead, but there are a few cases in which the twins survive. We present a case of thoraco-omphalophagus with omphalocele in 35 years old woman at 25weeks 5 days gestation by 3-D ultrasonography and MRI.
