Doctors soon determined that if the two were not separated, both would die. However, Mary, the weaker twin who was born with an underdeveloped brain, would never be able to survive without her twin.  The parents, who are Roman Catholics refuse to have the surgery done because it will result in the death of at least one of the sisters.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Case from the 2001 APPE National Ethics Bowl Championship.
