In present paper are included the more relevant general and obstetric data from one of these pregnancies occurred in Isla de la Juventud en 2006, becoming the first pregnancy of this type in our country. This case is interesting too by the unusual findings present in these twins compared to other similar cases present in the literature, the non-concomitance of this case with common risk factors and the accuracy of imaging diagnosis.

Keywords : Twins; Siamese; malformation.
