A case of asymmetric conjoined twins (Epigastrius) was successfully operated. The autosite had omphalocele. The parasite was attached to the xiphoid region, shared the abdominal cavity with the autosite, and had well developed lower lims, pelvis, kidney, bladder, ovaries, and intestine. At operation, it is important to remove all the tissues or organs belonging to the parasite.
