TWINS JOINED AT THE HEAD ARE SEPARATED AFTER 12-HOUR SURGERY IN ISRAEL

By Rob Picheta and Amir Tal, CNN



Updated 1421 GMT (2221 HKT) September 6, 2021

The twins can now face each other, for the first time since they were born a
year ago.

(CNN)One-year-old Israeli twin girls, who were born joined back-to-back at the
head, have been separated after a rare and complicated surgery.

The sisters, whose names were not provided, underwent a 12-hour operation at
Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, Israel last week.
The procedure was extremely rare, the hospital said in a statement on Sunday,
and came after months of preparation.



Following the operation, the twins can now face each other for the first time
since they were born in August last year.

"This is a rare and complex operation performed so far in the world only about
20 times, and for the first time in Israel," Mickey Gideon, director of
pediatric neurosurgery at Soroka Medical Center, said in a statement.

Gideon said the operation's success reinforced "the sense of mission that made
us doctors."
Twin girls, joined at the skull, successfully separated in 18-hour operation in
Vatican hospital
But he cautioned that "the next few days will be critical in the process of the
twins' recovery."
Dozens of staff cared for the twins and prepared them for surgery, the hospital
said.
The long road to the operation itself began several months ago, when skin and
tissue expanders were introduced under the girls' scalps, in order to stretch
the skin, allowing surgeons to close the scalps after the separation.
The surgery was planned with 3D models and virtual reality technology and the
months-long process involved a total of 50 hospital staff.

Conjoined twins occur once every 200,000 live births, according to the
University of Minnesota. They are always identical and most are female.
It is especially rare for twins to be joined at the head. Last year, twin girls
who were also conjoined back-to-back at the head were separated in a hospital in
the Vatican.
