Title: Twins born in Brazil with two heads, one heart
Post by: olaniyi001 on Dec 22, 2011, 10:30 PM
Conjoined twins have been born in Brazil with two heads, two functioning brains and two backbones - but a single heart.

The rare condition is thought to have occurred when one of the pair failed to fully develop in the womb.

Doctors say separating the twins, named Jesus and Emanuel, is not currently an option because there is only one set of organs.
