Conjoined twins are an extremely rare form of monozygotic twinning, with an estimated incidence of between 1 in 100,000 and 1 in 250,000 live births, and are rarely encountered by obstetricians. Prompt diagnosis and management are essential, as around 70% of conjoined twins die within 48 hours of birth or present with lethal congenital malformations. We report the case of a thoraco-omphalopagus twin pregnancy terminated at 13 weeks amenorrhea.
