Doctors separate twins head
In a marathon operation, doctors in India have separated head-grown Siamese twins. The 36-hour intervention involved 40 doctors, 20 nurses and other medical staff, as the hospital of the Indian Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi communicated.
The two two-year-old boys were born in a village of the East Indian state of Odisha. They had grown together on the skull, had common blood vessels and part of the brain tissue. Such a case occurs only once at 2.5 million births.
The biggest challenge was to cover the opening of the children's skulls with the children's skulls, said the plastic surgeon Maneesh Singhal on Friday, the AFP news agency. The next step was the reconstruction of the cranium.
