Conjoined male twin delivered at University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital five days ago through caesarean section. Pictured on the rescucitaire and radiant warmer as the doctors are working round the clock to keep them alive.

Their abdomen and thorax are fused. 2D Echo showed that they have separate heart. Abdominal scan also showed that they have different abdominal organs.

Na waoo

They should be taken to Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland ASAP so that they can be separated before they get very strong.

Hmmm, funding may be the issue here. Not easy to get someone, organisation or government to sponsor the separation surgery.

conjoined twins have been separated in nigeria before,

either way separation is always risky.

The only Nigerian siamese twins that i know have been seperated were seperated in Johns Hopkins hospital in the states and i think their operation and trip was sponsored by Tinubu.

It's gonna be a great achievement if they can do it here in Naija with other surgeons in paediatrics, cardiothoracic units even from other teaching hospitals.

A little act of kindness from well meaning Nigerians will raise the much needed funds for this seperation.
Good to know they have separate heart and different abdominal organs.
I pray that God will keep them alive.

But this twins are almost close to seperation, what ever dat stopped dem didn't try at ol...

My prayers for this babies, I pray dat d only ting joining them is just their skin and noting else like breast bone, ribs and rest of them.

I also pray that they are not sharing any body organ like lungs, etc..

Baba God do something for this kids cos they haven't offended anyone yet. I know they were conceived in sin but they never sin against u yet, do something Lord, Amen!!!
