摘要
We describe the anaesthetic management of the surgical separation of a pair of thoracopagus-cardiopagus twins with a common right atrium and a myocardial tissue bridge containing vascular channels between their ventricles. One of them died during the procedure, the surviving twin is now two years old. The survival of one twin for two years without significant sequelae, after the surgical separation of twins with shared right atrium and fused ventricles, has not previously been reported. Careful preoperative assessment is essential to anticipate potential serious problems during the procedure.
