Anesthesia for Conjoined Twins Conjoined twins are identical twins whose bodies are joined in utero. The occurrence is estimated to range from 1 in 50,000 to 1 in 100,000 births, with a somewhat higher occurrence in Southwest Asia and Africa. [1] The condition is more frequently found among females, with a ratio of 3:1. [2] Many are born with abnormalities incompatible with life. The overall survival rate for conjoined twins is approximately 20%. [3] Two contradicting theories exist to explain
