ABSTRACT
We report a clinical case in which an early ultrasound diagnosis of retained abortion of thoracoomphalopagus siamese twins is performed by embryonic biometry at 9.5 weeks of gestation. 2D and 3D images clearly illustrate the condition and the accuracy of prompt diagnosis of a disease with such a low prevalence among the world population.
