Abstract

El embarazo gemelar siempre ha sido visto con mucho interés y, como es conocido, existen dos tipos; los dicigóticos o fraternos, que representan el 70 %, y los monocigóticos, que son alrededor del 30%. En ocasiones los gemelos monocigóticos no se separan por completo y se producen los llamados gemelos unidos o conectados, y se clasifican según la región anatómica que los une, desde dos individuos bien desarrollados, independientes y simétricos, unidos tan sólo por una pequeña conexión superficial, hasta los que están representados sólo por porciones de cuerpo mutuamente adheridos o incluidos en un huésped más desarrollado. El objetivo de este trabajo es presentar un caso infrecuente de gemelas unidas o siameses toraco-onfalópago. Se comenta la literatura revisada
