Özet
Parasitic twin (heteropagus) is a term to describe an incomplete fetus which is partially resorbed and located on a normal fetus. Ischiopagus which defines the parasitic twins connected from ileum is the rarest form of heteropagus abnormalities. In this case, a thirteen week old fetus was diagnosed with ischiopagus, ambiguous genitalia, and left kidney agenesis during the first trimester ultrasonography screening. Termination was applied with the family decision. These cases should be evaluated together with accompanying multisystem anomalies. Informing the family with details about the viability of the fetus is important to prevent unnecessary termination.
