Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Four cases of conjoined twins are presented. On the basis of these cases and a review of the literature we present the ultrasonographic features to diagnose this rare condition prenatally in its various forms. Recommendations to avoid misdiagnosis are given. Consequences of this diagnosis and assessment of shared organs are discussed for counselling and obstetrical care. |
