The operation to separate the Fiji twins "Jaspeili and Dysisia" was successfully completed at King Abdullah Specialist Children's Hospital in Riyadh. The twins were fused in the abdominal and pelvic regions and shared several organs and systems, including the liver, intestines, urinary system, and reproductive organs. The procedure took approximately 15 hours and involved 34 doctors and specialists. The success rate was approximately 70%, which aligns with expected outcomes. This is the first such operation for the Republic of Fiji and is part of the efforts of the Saudi Program for Conjoined Twins, which has performed surgeries on nearly 159 twins from 28 countries across five continents since 1990.
