Conjoined Twins Remarkable Recovery After Separation Surgery: Owase Jeelani | Good Morning Britain

World-renowned British paediatric neurosurgeon Professor Owase Jeelani talks to GMB about the remarkable progress of Arthur and Bernardo Lima, the little boys who were conjoined at the head that he successfully separated in 2022.
Now, Professor Jeelani has been contacted by families of two new sets of twins conjoined at the head. He is hoping to bring them to the UK in the New Year to carry out the very complex surgeries to separate them through his charity Gemini Untwined.

what an amazing human being.

[@cynthiaarons9373]

This is an amazing doctor - beautiful soul!

[@beewa8840]

Congratulations to Professor Owase Jeelani and the team involved in this surgery.

[@marlimartins5116]

O Dr. Owase participou da última cirurgia, sendo as demais, seis ou sete, feitas pelo Dr. Gabriel e uma enorme equipe de apoio. A última, pela enorme complexidade, teve o apoio do Dr. Owese. Depois dessa cirurgia, o Hospital em questão tornou-se referência na América Latina para esse tipo de cirurgia. Hoje, no Brasil, se faz procedimentos de alta complexidade em todas as áreas.

Thank you to the drs and nurses that donate their time and skills to saving these children and giving them a chance to live more normal lives. God bless them 🙏

[@hannesrensen3604]

Normal lives ?

[@rebeccav9969]

​@@hannesrensen3604 I agree! 💯

[@tandiparent1906]

Good grief! Do you think all children/people who are disabled shouldn't be alive, because of whatever you consider a "normal life" to be?? These children had already had several failed attempts to separate & are now having to try to learn literally everything. What type of life do you think they would have had if they hadn't been separated??

[@carmelamay1755]

He is a wonderful, caring , talented , humble man.

Wonderful guest and subject. Happy 2024 and thank you for your broadcast on a subject that unites people and is very deserving of attention. XO from the USA

[@pamelajanewade938]

This Doctor is amazing and has a beautiful soul. Thank you very much and the other Doctor for helping all these children and wavering your fees, the hospital should waive the fees also. Congratulations to both Doctors. God bless you both abundantly AMEN 🙏🏻🙏🏻✝️✝️

[@marlimartins5116]

Aqui, no Brasil, quando se faz o tratamento pelo SUS ( Sistema Único de Saúde), o tratamento é INTEIRAMENTE DE GRAÇA. O paciente NÃO PAGA NADA ao Hospital e nem ao médico. Nesse caso, como não domino o inglês (listering) não sei se o cirurgião inglês cobrou os seus honorários. Se assim o fez, a família não teve NENHUMA despesa, sendo que o governo é que cobriu. Esses meninos fizeram mais de 7 cirurgia ao longo dos anos. Cirurgias complexas e de alto custo, sendo totalmente cobertas pelo governo.

Would love to see an extended piece titled "Meet the Jeeanis"

[@rebeccav9969]

Pre surgery videos look like the boys are much more cognitively "normal" than post-surgery. It seems the surgeries caused some brain damage.

[@justinmenendez680]

its basically guaranteed with these types of separation surgery where they are conjoined at the head

[@stacy_anndale6085]

Wow 39 family members who is doctor god bless you all ❤❤

[@allisonlewis2115]

I saw on another post that these lads are now severly brain damaged and yet were not before separation. I hope thats not the case as other conjoined twins have lived long fullfilled lives with no mental disability. I hope the glory of separation wasnt at their expense.

[@Fabi-Coelho]

É certo que serão acompanhados e farão tratamento para o resto de suas vidas, mas estão evoluindo e aos poucos tendo progresso, o mínimo que seja pra eles é muito! As 2 ultimas cirurgias ( um total de 9 cirurgias) foram extramente complexas e difíceis, era inevitável eles não saírem com nenhuma seguela , foram quase 24 hrs de cirurgia se não me engano, foi um milagre os 2 terem sobrevivido eram apenas bebês, os médicos com certeza fizeram um excelente trabalho diante da gravidade e complexidade do caso! A família com certeza sabia dos riscos ( e as possiveis seguelas que poderiam surgir) e coube somente a eles decidirem separar e assim foi feito!

[@karensayer3089]

He explained the ability of the brain,if done when year old too older twins. Like these two children.

It would not happen without Brazilian team and health system called SUS and Brazilian Dr. Gabriel.

@@dftfire I think he said the nurses doctors do that kind of work for free and that the medical bills cost a million

[@GeminiUntwined]

@@Jp67-n6b The costs of hospital services (the beds, the surgical room, and the med-tech), medicine, rehabilitation, and accommodation for up to 6 months for the kids, parents, and siblings (usually in central London) will amount to £1mn. The surgeons and team, they don't charge a penny for their service.

Why do hospital charge so much money to poor people😮

The surgery was completely free! It was made in Brazil, in Brazil hospitals are free!

[@shelleydetects603]

What about how damaged the kids are?

[@surijosuperbaby]

Something very important wasn’t said , that being that the Brazilian free heathcare system ( SUS) PAID for all the surgeries and has been paying for all the health expenses from the start .

[@acassialima9453]

Operacion in Brasil 🎉

Love to help. What are contact details pse?

[@stevenzacharakis]

Do the children have conditions inflicted by the surgery?

[@maquisbg]

Oh my God this kids had a cerebral palsy, the life in the family turn very difficult probably they never talk learn walk etc. This is a tragedy before and after the sergury.

[@Jaque1961]

They appear blind and cannot talk.

[@g0d182]

cool

[@coppertop1029]

How are the boys today? Physically, emotionally, disabilities?😊

[@Maggy47]

Were the twins disabled b4 hind

[@johanneratte3626]

They were not disable before

[@tandiparent1906]

But the facts that they had had several other doctors attempting over the years trying to separate them & causing problems like scar tissue & them being older made everything more difficult; but, they are making progress, albeit slow progress. But then again, they're both having to learn or relearn everything.

[@g.borgia5100]

​@@johanneratte3626I'm sure the decisions made for the boys was for their own best interest. Several attempts were made previously, I don't believe such risks would be taken lightly

[@creativekathemmingson2866]

It should be a choice to not carry to term. Especially in some cases where one or both do not look viable

How is it that Britain can afford to perform this cranial separation to non British patients but not many everyday operations to British citizens?

[@gemmaodonnell8883]

Were you not listening to what this man said? The surgeries he performs here benefit medical science generally.

But they also were not having a “normal life” with their heads, conjoined together, either.
