Abstract
Conjoined twins are among the most uncommon children abnormalities occurring at a prevalence of approximately 1 in 50/000-100/000 births. Omphalopagus is the second most common form of conjoined twining after thoracopagus and in such conditions the liver, pancreas and biliary tree, and intestine may be shared between twins. Precise pre-operative evaluations, proper surgical plan, availability of different experienced teams are necessary for successful operation. The present xipho-omphalopagus twins were delivered through C/S. This is a report on successful separation of xipho-omphalopagus conjoined twins.
