dilation
and curettage was performed for a
blighted ovum at 6 weeks.
A repeated ultrasound (Figure 3) at 11
weeks of gestation confirmed that the fetuses
were joined in abdominal region
only (omphalopagus). Doppler ultrasound
revealed a bifurcated umbilical
cord below the conjoined region (Figure
4). She elected termination of pregnancy
at this point, and a dilation and curettage
was performed without complication.
