How many sets of conjoined twins are currently living throughout the world?

Tip for best answer: M$0.25
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

If you work out the math on that link, you could find a range for the answer, and it would probably become the "best answer."

The conjoined twin page on Wikipedia has a list of conjoined twins. Scanning through which ones are still alive, there are 6 sets. In addition, a number have been separated and are still alive; in some cases one of the twins died during the operation and one is still alive.

Ronnie and Donnie Galyon of Ohio (1951–), currently the world's oldest living conjoined twins

Lori and George (formerly Reba, born Dori) Schappell born 18 September 1961 in Reading, Pennsylvania, American entertainers, craniopagus, not separated

Abigail and Brittany Hensel, (1990-), born in Carver County, Minnesota, United States of America, dicephalic conjoined twins, two heads, two arms, two legs, cannot be separated

Ayşe and Sema born in Kahramanmaraş, Turkey on December 24, 2000 with 2 heads, 4 arms and 2 legs.

Carmen and Lupita Andrade, born Dicephalus Tetrabrachius Dipus (2 heads, 4 arms and 2 legs) in 2000. Separation was not possible.

Krista and Tatiana Hogan, Canadian twins conjoined at the head. Born October 25, 2006.
