In what is considered to be a medical breakthrough, a team of pediatric surgeons, nurses and junior doctors at Sally Mugabe Central Hospital in Harare successfully seperated an asymmetrical conjoined twin from a two year old boy in a delicate four hour procedure on Tuesday.

The two year old boy who was seperated from his parasitic twin was struggling to find help at other hospitals and finally found the treatment he needed, freeing him from the parasitic twin in Harare.

A parasitic twin is a type of a conjoined twin where ome foetus stops developing, but remains attached to its twin. The other twin continues to develop, but is usually born with limbs, organs or other tissue structure from its parasitic twin still attached.
