title: [Radiodiagnostic methods in the postmortem study of a dicephalus masculinus].
abstract: With conventional radiography and with CT several malformations were detected in a dicephalus masculinus. The most important were: 2 spinal medullas in a common spinal canal (TH1 to L4), hydrocephalus of both lateral ventricles and of the third ventricle, prolaps of the left hepatic lobe into the left thoracic cavity, two aortic arcs, one large internal jugular vein, and twin bases of the vertebrae TH1 to L5. The dicephalus had not only a double head, but also two cervices connected by a falx.
