Conjoined twins have been the focus of several noteworthy works of entertainment, including:

Stuck on You (2003 film), a 2003 American comedy film screen written and directed by the Farrelly brothers and starring Matt Damon and Greg Kinnear as conjoined twin brothers, whose conflicting aspirations provide both conflict and humorous situations, in particular when one of them wishes to move to Hollywood to pursue a career as an actor. Alone, a Thai horror film following Pim after the death of her sister Ploy and their subsequent separation. Blood Sisters focuses on a French Canadian model who has a separated conjoined twin. Irish author Sarah Crossan won the Carnegie Medal for her verse novel, One. The story follows the life and survival of conjoined twin sisters. The book also won The Booksellers 2016 prize for young adult fiction and the Irish Childrens Book of the Year.
In many cases, the surgery results in the death of one or both of the twins, particularly if they are joined at the head or share a vital organ. This makes the ethics of surgical separation, where the twins can survive if not separated, contentious. Alice Dreger of Northwestern University found the quality of life of twins who remain conjoined to be higher than is commonly supposed. Lori and George Schappell and Abby and Brittany Hensel are notable examples. The first record of separating conjoined twins took place in the Byzantine Empire in the 900s. One of the conjoined twins had already died, so the doctors of the town attempted to separate the dead twin from the surviving twin. The result was partly successful as the remaining twin lived for three days after separation. The next case of separating conjoined twins was recorded in 1689 in Germany several centuries later. The first recorded successful separation of conjoined twins was performed in 1689 by Johannes Fatio. In 1955, neurosurgeon Harold Voris (1902-1980) and his team at Mercy Hospital in Chicago performed the first successful operation to separate craniopagus twins (conjoined at the head), which resulted in long-term survival for both. The larger girl was reported in 1963 as developing normally, but the smaller girl was permanently impaired.In 1957, Bertram Katz and his surgical team made international medical history performing the worlds first successful separation of conjoined twins sharing a vital organ.
