title: [Thoraco-omphalopagus: importance of angiocardiography for clarification of operability (author's transl)].
abstract: The article reports on a case of thorako-omphalopagus with conjoinment from the sternum to the umbilical region. Radiological and especially angiocardiographic examinations revealed considerable fusion and complex malformation of the hearts of Siamese twins. This specific diagnosis proved the inoperability of the otherwise largely regularly developed children who died on the sixth day of their life.
