Abstract
The authors report on their second experience of a successful separation of ischiopagus tripus conjoined twins. Particular emphasis is placed on the painful decision of sacrificing the only available leg to cover the infected wound after an unexpected complication in twin A. The twins' preoperative evaluation, separation surgery, and subsequent 16-month course are described.Mesh:
