Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The case is presented of conjoined twins diagnosed prenatally by ultrasound. Recognition of this obstetric problem allows for rational planning of the pregnancy and delivery, including delivery by cesarean section in an institution equipped with pediatric surgical and neonatal intensive care facilities. Prenatal sonography further allows for investigation of the fetuses and prediction of neonatal problems.
