This study examined dicephalus conjoined twins, revealing organ sharing and duplication patterns. Findings suggest twin notochord ("paleoaxis") arrangement influences organ development and malformations.

Area of Science:

Developmental Biology
Teratology
Human Anatomy

Background:

Conjoined twin morphogenesis remains poorly understood.
Dicephalus dibrachii dipus represents a rare form of conjoined twinning.
