Craniopagus twins are described. At the age of 24 years, the twins appeared to have adapted well to their disability. The site of union, their relatively advanced age, and the high risk of operation were the reasons for not proposing surgical separation. Perceptive upbringing and adaptation to the disability may be alternatives to the neurosurgical management of this birth defect.
本文描述了颅联体双胞胎。这对双胞胎24岁时，似乎已很好地适应了自身的残疾状况。联体部位、他们相对较大的年龄以及手术的高风险是未提议进行手术分离的原因。敏锐的养育方式和对残疾的适应可能是这种出生缺陷神经外科治疗的替代方法。
