PRESENTED BYDR. MAIMUNA SAYEED

Particulars of the PatientsName: D/O TaslimaAge: Day 4OutbornAddress: PabnaDate of admission: 21.07.16Date of examination: 21.07.16

Presenting Complaints Born before date Twin attached at head since birth

History of Present Illness Mother Taslima, 32 years old, Para 2+1

(abortion), having blood group O+ve and the father’s blood group is O+ve. She received 5 regular antenatal checkup and got 2 doses of tetanus toxoid. She has no h/o PIH, GDM, hypothyroidism, PROM or any other chronic illness. She had no h/o taking ovulation inducing drug and no family h/o twin. At 28 weeks of gestation USG revealed single viable pregnancy with mild hydrocephalus and BPD is 9cm which corresponds to 36 weeks.

History of Present Illness (Contd.)So mother was advised to take neurology consultation about the outcome of baby. After consultation from neurologist, as she heard about the poor outcome of the baby, she planned for elective LUCS. At 35 weeks of gestation, elective LUCS was done in a local clinic and a twin female babies were born with their head attached together. Both babies cried immediately after birth, APGAR score was 6/10 & 7/10 at 1st & 5th min respectively but birth weight was not documented.

History of Present Illness (Contd.) Then the babies were kept with mother

and was on EBF. Both of them passed urine and meconium within first 12 hours of life. Later the babies were referred to BSMMU for further evaluation & management. At day 4 of post-natal age, the babies were transferred to BSMMU by an ambulance in mother’s lap with proper wrapping and transportation time was about 7 hours without any difficulties.

Birth History Antenatal: Mother received 5 ANC and the

period was uneventful.

Natal: Conjoint twins were delivered by LUCS at 35 weeks of gestation.

Postnatal: Both of the babies cried immediately after birth, APGAR score was 6/10 & 7/10 at 1st & 5th min respectively, and both of them passed urine and meconium within first 12 fours of life.

Family History They are the 2nd issue of non-

consanguineous parents. Other sib is 5-year-old and healthy.

There is no family h/o twins.

Socioeconomic History Parents are from middle socio-

economic background. Both parents are private school

teacher.

General ExaminationFirst twin: Pink in room air Icteric up to leg Reflexes and activities: good CRT: <3 sec Anterior fontanel: open, not bulged Skin survey: Normal

General Examination (Contd.) Umbilicus: Healthy (2 arteries, 1 vein) Genitalia: female pattern Anus: Patent CBG: 5.6 mmol/L

Vital signs: HR – 138 b/min RR – 42 br/min Temp - 98˚F

General Examination (Contd.)Second twin: Pink in room air Icteric up to leg Reflexes and activities: good CRT: <3 sec Anterior fontanel: open, not bulged Skin survey: Normal

General Examination (Contd.) Umbilicus: Healthy (2 arteries, 1 vein) Genitalia: female pattern Anus: Patent CBG: 5.6 mmol/L

Vital signs: HR – 142 b/min RR – 46 br/min Temp - 98˚F

General Examination (Contd.) Head

examination:Both babies were attached together over a part of both parietal and occipital region of head.

General Examination (Contd.)Anthropometry: Weight – 2780gms (combined)First Twin: Length – 47 cm (50th - 75th centile) OFC – 31 cm (25th centile)Second Twin: Length – 47 cm (50th - 75th centile) OFC – 30 cm (10th centile)

Resp. System ExaminationFirst Twin: RR – 42 br/min Chest in-drawing: absent No grunting Bilateral good air entry in both lungs

with no added sound

Resp. System Examination (Contd.)Second Twin: RR – 46 br/min Chest in-drawing: absent No grunting Bilateral good air entry in both lungs

with no added sound

CVS ExaminationBoth twins Apex beat: left 4th intercostal space

on the mid-clavicular line. Heart Sound: first and second heart

sounds are audible in all four areas. No murmur was present.

GIT ExaminationBoth twins Abdomen: soft, not distended No organomegaly Bowel sound present

Urinary System ExaminationBoth twins Kidney: not ballotable Urinary bladder: not palpable

Other systemic examination reveals no abnormal findings.

Salient Features D/O Taslima, outborn, 2nd issue of non-

consanguineous parents, hailing from Pabna was admitted on their 4th post-natal age due to prematurity and fused head with each other from birth. Mother Taslima, 32 years old, Para 2+1 (abortion), having blood group O+ve was on regular antenatal checkup and was immunized against tetanus. She has no h/o PIH, GDM, hypothyroidism, PROM or any other chronic illness. No h/o taking ovulation inducing agents.

Salient Features (Contd.) At 28 weeks of gestation antenatal USG revealed

a single viable pregnancy with mild hydrocephalus. At 35 weeks of gestation, due to risk of poor outcome of baby, elective LUCS was done in a local clinic and a twin female babies were born who were fused together at head. They cried immediately after birth, APGAR score was 6/10 & 7/10 at 1st & 5th min respectively of both twin, birth weight was not documented. They passed urine and meconium within first 12 hours of life. At day 4 of post natal age babies were referred to BSMMU for further evaluation & management.

Salient Features (Contd.) On examination, babies were pink in air,

icteric up to leg, reflex activities were good, normothermic, well perfused, euglycemic, vitals within normal range, both head were fused with each other over part of both parietal and part of occipital region, anthropometry of each baby were in centile chart, combined weight was 2780 gm, systemic examinations revealed nothing abnormality.
