9.Anesthetic considerations for a preterm two-day old omphalopagus conjoined twins with Imperforate anus for an emergency procedure: A case report
Journal of the Philippine Medical Association 2024;102(2):57-64
Conjoined twins are one of the most
intriguing malformations in human beings. This
report describes the anesthetic management of a
two-day-old pretermomphalopagus conjoined
twins posted for an emergency diverting colostomy
for imperforate anus. These conjoined twins were
born to a primigravid via cesarean section for fetal
indication. They were born preterm at 36 weeks
age of gestation with a collective birth weight of4.1
kg and an APGAR score 89. Computerized
tomography scan of the chest and abdomen
revealed Omphalopagus twins with left lower lobe
atelectasis for Twin 2, fused liver, separate stomach
and small intestines with distal fusion, imperforate
anus, horseshoe kidney, bladder fistula, and the
shared lower extremity appears to derive its blood
supply from Twin 1. Evaluation of cross-circulation
between the twins was done pre-induction by
giving atropine IV to Twin 1. Atropine flush and
increase in heart rate were noted in Twin 1,
however, were not appreciated in Twin 2.
Anesthesia for conjoined twins can be the most
daunting and intimidating procedure that an
anesthesiologist can handle in his lifetime. We
highlight the challenges encountered with
anesthesia preparation, preoperative planning,
positioning, airway management, preservation of
hemodynamic stability, as well as monitoring in an
emergency setting.

10.The perioperative anesthetic management of conjoined twins: A case report
Catherine Renee B. Reyes ; Yves Kristine G. Garcia
Acta Medica Philippina 2024;58(Early Access 2024):1-4
The perioperative management of conjoined twins poses unique anatomic, physiologic, logistic, and even ethical challenges, necessitating a multidisciplinary team approach. We present a case of omphalopagus conjoined twins separated at the second month of life (39 2/7 weeks post-conceptual age). This paper highlights significant components in the anesthetic management of conjoined twins for separation surgery, in light of modern medicine and technological advancements.
