Three cases of twins conjoined across the chest were examined. In one set, one twin showed right atrial isomerism and the other showed the usual atrial arrangement. The other two sets showed the usual atrial arrangement in both twins. The associated cardiac anomalies were diverse, ranging from atrioventricular septal defects to absent atrioventricular connections. Sequential segmental analysis was used successfully in each case to classify the complex cardiac anomalies. The first step was the recognition of the atrial arrangement. This was easily achieved despite the complexity of the intracardiac morphology.
对三例胸部相连的联体双胞胎进行了检查。在其中一组中，一个双胞胎显示右心房异构，另一个显示正常的心房排列。另外两组双胞胎均显示正常的心房排列。相关的心脏异常多种多样，从房室间隔缺损到房室连接缺失。在每个病例中，均成功使用序列节段分析法对复杂的心脏异常进行分类。第一步是识别心房排列。尽管心脏内部形态复杂，但这很容易实现。
