Thoraco-omphalopagus conjoined twins diagnosed at 14 weeks of gestation

Abstract

Conjoined twins are very rare and the mortality rate of the fetus is extremely high. Early prenatal diagnosis is crucial, as it provides the opportunity for the mother and father to help in recognizing the conjunction of the twins and to help medical team in defining the prognosis of conjoined twins. We present a case of thoraco‐omphalopagus conjoined twins diagnosed by two‐dimensional and three‐ dimensional transabdominal sonography at 14 +2 weeks of gestation.
