The incidence of conjoined twins is rare, occurring in one in 50-80,000 live births. The rarity of the occurrence presents quite a management challenge. The first case in New Zealand of successfully separated thoraco-omphalagus twins, presenting top-to-tail, is described.
联体双胎的发生率很低,在50000至80000例活产中出现1例。这种情况的罕见性带来了相当大的管理挑战。本文描述了新西兰首例成功分离的胸腹联体双胎病例,该病例呈现头对尾的姿势。
