Conjoined Twins are rare however, such cases are often highlighted in medical literature, social and electronic media. Separation of conjoined twins is no longer considered an exceptional event in the developed world but it remains a unique challenges to pediatric surgeons working in middle and low-income countries with limited well rounded health care facilities to deal with such cases. We report successful separation of a set of Conjoined Twins- Thoraco-Omphalophagus in a resource constraint setting to highlight lessons learned and its possible implications to global surgery initiatives. Keywords: Conjoined twins, Pediatric surgery, Liver surgery, Quality, Global surgery |
