Twins recover after surgery

CONJOINED Bangladeshi twins who were separated in a marathon surgery last week have left intensive care and are adjusting well, hospital officials said.

Trishna and Krishna, who turn three next month, had been joined at the top of their heads and shared brain tissue and blood vessels.

They were separated after 25 hours of delicate surgery in Melbourne’s Royal Children’s Hospital and then underwent an additional six hours of reconstructive work.
