摘要: We describe a rare conjoined twinning at 9 weeks of gestation. compared the results two- and three-dimensional sonography with autopsy findings after termination pregnancy. These showed thoracoomphalopagus shared heart visceral organs. Three-dimensional sonog- raphy anencephaly in one embryos. Early accurate prenatal diagnosis this type twins using is critical for both parental counseling minimizing maternal morbidity. V C 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
