Medical Figure. Maria and Daria Krivoshlyapova were Ischiopagus tripus conjoined twins from Russia. They were removed from their mother's custody at birth to be studied by Soviet physiologists. Their mother was told that her daughters had died soon after their birth. Masha fell ill on the 13th of April, 2003, complaining of back pain. She died the following day, on the 14th of April, seventeen hours after the onset of her symptoms. Dasha was taken to the First City Hospital and died another seventeen hours later due to blood poisoning from the toxic by-products of Masha's decomposing body. At the time of their death they were the oldest living conjoined twins in the world. The pair were cremated and their remains lie in the Vagankovskoye Cemetery in Moscow.
