Abstract

Despite recent advances in diagnosis, particularly organ-imaging, and therapeutic options, the management of conjoined twins is still very challenging. We report conjoined twins attached ()end-on" at the lumbo-sacral level and describe the anatomical findings, methods of investigation, and management.
