A common pericardial sac is present in 90% of thoracopagus twins, and conjoined hearts are seen in 75%.3The present case was diagnosed prenatally, and the twins subsequently experienced intrauterine demise at ≈22 weeks gestation. Postmortem angiography demonstrated conjoined hearts with a left ventricle common to both twins (Figure). At autopsy, the cardiac anatomy for both hearts was found to be an unbalanced complete atrioventricular canal defect with a common left ventricle. Download figureDownload PowerPointFigure.
