A case of cephalothoracopagus female twins is reported, and the anatomical and pathologic features are described in detail. The central nervous systems were completely double. However, there were three eyeballs, two on the well-formed face and one in the cranial base, forming a saddle-shaped ridge of orbital plates. The latter was supplied by optic nerves of both individuals. On the other hand, there was a single esophagus, stomach and duodenum, but the intestine was shared equally at the jejunum by the two individuals. The larynges, tracheae, lungs, hearts, livers, pancreases, spleens and urogenital organs were also duplicated. Previously unreported abnormalities of the hearts are described, and a comparison with similar autopsy cases reported previously in Japan is given.
报道了一例头胸联体女性双胞胎病例，并详细描述了解剖和病理特征。中枢神经系统完全是双份的。然而，有三只眼球，两只在发育良好的面部，一只在颅底，形成了一个鞍状的眶板嵴。后者由两个人的视神经供血。另一方面，食管、胃和十二指肠是单一的，但肠道在空肠处由两个人平均共享。喉、气管、肺、心脏、肝脏、胰腺、脾脏和泌尿生殖器官也是双份的。描述了以前未报道的心脏异常情况，并与日本以前报道的类似尸检病例进行了比较。
