Conjoined Twins Separated
You are here: The D&T Blog > Conjoined Twins Separated
Challenging surgery needs meticulous planning; and surgery does not get a lot more challenging then the separation of the two conjoined baby girls, Ritag and Ritail Gabora, who were craniopagus – fused at the head. Along with our sister imaging practice, Cavendish Imaging, we were proud to be able to contribute a variety of surgical models of the twins at the various stages of their treatment to improve surgical planning.
3D printing techniques were used to produce physical models that allowed the complex anatomy of the skull, vessels, and brain to be better visualised and understood.
These planning techniques are part of our everyday practice when it comes to treating patients with complex problems, and we were proud to be able to support the charity Facing The Word by providing this expertise.
We wish to congratulate Facing The World and the surgical team led by David Dunaway for their fantastic achievement.
Everyone at Dawood and Tanner wishes the twins a speedy and full recovery.
