摘要: In this article we review the historically important cases of conjoined twins (Biddenden Maids, Siamese twins, Blazek sisters) and contemporary knowledge regarding incidence, etiopathogenesis, antenatal diagnosis, management, outcome twins. We also present a case male cephalothoracoomphalopagus, which is extremely rare.
