The antepartum diagnosis of conjoined twins.

Abstract:

:This is a case report in which the diagnosis of conjoined twins was made in a woman by ultrasonography in her eigth month of pregnancy. With this diagnosis, the mother-to-be was transported to a hospital with sophisticated obstetrical, neonatal, and pediatric surgical facilities. The twins were delivered by elective caesarian section and were seen to have anomalies requiring immediate surgery. Following stabilization and basic investigations, surgery was performed on the infants at 3 hr of age. This resulted in a condition that permitted a thorough postoperative work-up and elective separation several months later.
