Conjoined Twins: United by the Hips, Separated by the Heart

A Rare Bond That Captivates the World

Conjoined twins are an extraordinary rarity, occurring in only 1 in every 50,000 to 60,000 births. Among the rarest are pygopagus twins—joined at the hips but fully individual above the waist. They share pelvises, hips, and legs, yet have separate hearts, lungs, arms, and minds.

This unique condition is a medical marvel. While separation surgery isn’t possible due to the complexity of their shared lower body, a team of specialists supports them through custom therapy, mobility training, and nutrition to ensure they thrive together.

Their story is not just about anatomy—it’s a journey of resilience, identity, and deep connection.
