VR助头颅相连双胞胎成功分离
VR technology was used by doctors in Brazil and Britain who were involved in the operation involving the joined twins. The twin boys are named Arthur and Bernardo. The two were joined at the head and shared some brain tissue. Doctors in Brazil had attempted to separate the boys in the past, but they were unsuccessful. Then the hospital that cared for the twins for the past two-and-a-half years decided to contact a British charity that has financed and provided medical teams to support similar separations.
The charity is called Gemini Untwined. Its creator is Noor ul Owase Jeelani. He is a surgeon at London’s Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. Jeelani specializes in separating joined twins, especially those linked at the head. Gemini Untwined has helped carry out several successful surgeries of child twins since it was established in 2018. But Jeelani said the separation of Arthur and Bernardo was the most difficult operation yet. He explained in a statement that this is because the boys shared important veins in the brain. At four years old, the twins were also the oldest with connected brain tissue to try separation surgery, Jeelani added.
