The management of a rare case of conjoined twins in a limited resource setting in Trinidad: a case report

Conjoined twins are very rare and some obstetricians may go through their career without ever managing a case. This case describes a thoraco-omphalopagus whereby the twins were joined at the chest and abdomen. Management of conjoined twins largely depends on the degree of conjoining and the availability of resources. In this case, the severity of the conjoining and lack of specialized resources resulted in managing via termination of the pregnancy. This is the first published case of conjoined twins from Trinidad and Tobago. The aim of this case report is to share our findings and management in a setting with limited resources.
