The background information for combined twins is:
The merged twins are physically connected to each other physically at some point.
According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, there are twins that are a pair for every 200,000 born.
About 70% of combined twins are women.
The merged twins are the same – they are the same sex.
Combination The form of twinning refers to the point where twins join. Thoracoscopy (heart, liver, intestines), bronchial tubes (liver, bile tree, intestine), pygopagus (spine, rectum, genitourinary tract), backbone (pelvis, liver, intestine and genitourinary tract) and craniopagus (brain and meninges). (Mayo Clinic)
Scientists think that combined twins can not be separated completely from one fertilized egg.
The term "Siamese twins" originated with Eng and Chang Bunker, and combined twins who were born in 1811 in Siam (now Thailand). They lived up to the age of 63 and appeared in travel exhibitions. Chang and Eng were married to each other and had 21 children.
In 1955 Dr. Harold Voris of Neurosurgery at Mercy Hospital in Chicago conducted the first successful procedure to separate the combined twins connected to their heads.
