Abstract:
Conjoined twinning is one of the most fascinating human malformations. The incidence of conjoined is 1:50,000 to 1:100,000 live births, with 40–60% being stillborn and about 35% of the live births not surviving beyond 24 hours. The exact incidence of conjoint twins in Nigeria is not known as there are instances of under-reporting, largely due to the relatively poor prognosis and stigmatisation associated with conjoined twinning.
 We are reporting a case of thoraco-omphalophagus conjoint twins and a malformed third fetus diagnosed by ultrasound in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Abstract:
Conjoined twins, sometimes known as Siamese twins, are a rare kind of congenital human malformation. Conjoined twins are an extremely rare and rarely encountered impediment to monozygotic twinning, occurring in 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 250,000 live births. Conjoined twins share the same genes and are of the same sex. Reports have indicated a 3:1 female predominance. A 17-year-old woman at 23 weeks of gestation was referred at her second trimester of pregnancy from a rural area. Ultrasonographic evaluation revealed the presence of a monochorionic, monoamniotic twin pregnancy. The twins conjoined wi

Abstract:
Conjoined twins have rights that must be fulfilled like other humans, namely the right to marry. However, Islamic Law scholars still debate the validity of conjoined twin marriages. This research discusses the debate about the marriage of conjoined twins in Islamic law. The research method uses normative juridical with an Islamic legal approach. The results show that conjoined twins are generally divided into two groups, conjoined twins who can be separated by surgery and conjoined twins who cannot be separated by surgery.

Abstract:
Conjoined twins have fascinated humankind throughout the centuries because of the rarity of this type of birth; however, conjoined twins have always been a challenge for physicians. Here, in this case series, we discuss five such interesting conjoint (heteropagus) twins cases which are a rare entity. Conjoined twins are associated with a high perinatal mortality; therefore, making an early diagnosis with ultrasonographic examination of conjoined twins gives the parents a chance to elect pregnancy termination.

Ultrasound confirmed vital pregnancy of conjoined twins – thoracopagus. After prenatal diagnostic consultation the patient decided for termination of pregnancy. Molecular analysis confirmed a female fetus without any chromosomal anomalies. Conclusion: The occurrancce of conjoined twins is very rare. Early prenatal ultrasound diagnosis plays an important role. Presented case report describes conjoined twins with poor prognosis becau

Abstract:
Conjoined twins are rare, but craniopagus conjoined twins are rarer still. A pair of four-year-old craniopagus female twins with an unusual brain structure may offer new clues as to how the brain functions. This overview is followed by reviews of recent twin research on mothers of twins, twin transfusion syndrome, twin delivery options and twin literary themes. Relevant topics appearing in the media include twin tennis champions, twins' parallel lives and deaths, a new book for families with twins and a performance about a twin musical legend.

Abstract:
Conjoined twins or Siamese twins are identical twins that are joined in utero. The original Siamese twins were born in Siam (now Thailand) in 1811. They were males and lived for about 62 years. Incidence being 1 in 49,000 births to 1 in 1,89,000 births, this phenomenon is very rare. Approximate half are stillborn and one- third die within 24 hours of birth. Five types of conjoint twins are classically described, thoracopagus, omphalopagus, pygopagus, ischiopagus and craniopagus. With a reported incidence of 74-75% of all conjoint twins, Thoracopagus is the most common type. Omphalopagus with a

Abstract:
HIGHLIGHTS Conjoined twins have captivated mankind for centuries due to the rarity of this birth type; nonetheless, physicians have constantly encountered difficulties in dealing with conjoined twins. Early diagnosis of conjoined twins during prenatal examination is critical for ascertaining the prognosis of the fetus, guiding parental counseling over appropriate courses of action, and potentially enabling the termination of the pregnancy. First-trimester ultrasonography and MRI are complementary modalities in determining the diagnosis and prognosis of conjoined twins in early pregnancy. ABSTR

Abstract:
Heteropagus or parasitic conjoined twins represent an extremely rare anomaly, occurring in approximately 1 in 1 million cases. This condition is characterized by the presence of a parasitic twin with significant congenital abnormalities attached to an otherwise typically healthy fetus. The well-developed twin is known as the “autosite” or “host,” while the severely affected fetus is termed the “parasite.” Survival of the defective twin depends on the cardiovascular system of the second, relatively normal fetus. We present the case of a 27-year-old primigravida in her 14th week of pregnancy wit
