Asymmetric cephalothoracoileopagus. (a) Case described by Kaufmann (Kaufmann et al., 2007) including schematics of the embryonic disk model before (top) and after parasitic regression (bottom).

(b) Case described by Kastenbaum (Kastenbaum, McPherson, Murdoch, & Ozolek, 2009) including schematics of the embryonic disk model before (top) and after parasitic regression (bottom). As a result of the profound regression, the neo‐axial orientation of compound structures and organs in the convex and concave conjunction planes is largely abolished (dashed arrows).
