We succeeded in operationg on two cases of conjoined premature twins on November 1996 and on August 2000 respectively, one case was throacodelpus, and the other was thoracic-abdomina. The birth weights were 4125g and 3700g respectively.

The base nursing for the babies was reinforced. We took the methods by nipping and tractiving abdominal wall to relax muscles and enlarge abdominal cavity to assure closing the whole abdominal wall successfully.

After operation, we supervised the T.P.R., Bp, CVP, SaO2 and rhythm of heart in real time. We paid more attentions to prevent the wound, the lung and Enterocelia from infection in order to decrease the incidence rate of complications, especially the peritonitis causing by the  cross section bleeding and bilis fistula.
