About this document

Antenatal Diagnosis of Craniopagus Parasiticus by Abdul Alim is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This case report discusses Craniopagus Parasiticus, a rare condition with an incidence of 4-6 cases per 10 million live births, where one embryo develops fully while the other is severely underdeveloped. An ultrasound of a 38-year-old female at 18 weeks of pregnancy revealed a single gestational sac with two craniums joined together, leading to a medical termination due to absent cardiac pulsation. Early diagnosis is crucial for management decisions and improving prognosis in such rare cases.
