| Popis: |
A parasitic or heteropagus twin is a grossly defective fetus (or fetus part) attached externally, with or without internal connections and is dependent on the cardiovascular system of the other twin (autosite) for survival. The estimated incidence is approximately 1 per 1 million live births. To date according to the authors’ knowledge; there are a few case reports published in the literature. Here we present a case of dorsolumbar parasitic twin with associated lipomyelomeningocele. |
