Year-old conjoined twins who shared a pelvis and three legs have been successfully separated.

“For now, I’m just glad that they are safe.”

Datuk Dr Zakaria Zahari, the hospital’s head of paediatric surgery said: “With proper rehabilitation, both boys can lead a fairly normal and independent life.

“The sexual and reproductive functions of both twins will be assessed further as they grow.”
