  • A set of one-year-old conjoined twins who had been sharing part of their hearts have been successful separated following a mammoth seven-hour operation. Anna and Hope Richards were separated at the Texas Children’s Hospital in Texas, it was announced this week, by a multidisciplinary 75-strong team of surgeons, anesthesiologists, cardiologists and nurses. The girls were delivered via C-section on 29 December, 2016, at 35 weeks gestation, weighing a combined 9lbs 12oz (4.4kg) and were conjoined at their chest and abdomen, through the length of their torso and shared the chest wall, pericardial sac (lining of the heart), diaphragm and liver. In addition they had large blood vessels connecting their hearts. The twins are now recovering at the hospital and are expected to be strong enough to go home in about a month’s time. “We've thought about and prayed for this day for almost two years,” their mother Jill Richards said, who welcomed the girls along with her husband Michael and their sons Collin and Seth. “It's an indescribable feeling to look at our girls in two separate beds.” The epic surgery was carried out on January 13 and involved planning and preparation before the girls were even born. In November last year, aged 11 months, the twins underwent a surgical procedure to place tissue expanders to allow their skin to grow and stretch ready for their separation. Dr. Larry Hollier, surgeon-in-chief and chief of plastic surgery at Texas Children’s Hospital, said: “The success of this incredibly complex surgery was the result of our dedicated team members’ hard work throughout the last year. “Through simulations and countless planning meetings, we were able to prepare for situations that could arise during the separation. “We are thrilled with the outcome and look forward to continuing to care for Anna and Hope as they recover.” The Richards family, from North Texas, learned Jill was carrying conjoined twins during a routine ultrasound.

The girls were delivered via C-section on 29 December, 2016, at 35 weeks gestation, weighing a combined 9lbs 12oz (4.4kg) and were conjoined at their chest and abdomen, through the length of their torso and shared the chest wall, pericardial sac (lining of the heart), diaphragm and liver. In addition they had large blood vessels connecting their hearts. The twins are now recovering at the hospital and are expected to be strong enough to go home in about a month’s time. “We've thought about and prayed for this day for almost two years,” their mother Jill Richards said, who welcomed the girls along with her husband Michael and their sons Collin and Seth. “It's an indescribable feeling to look at our girls in two separate beds.” The epic surgery was carried out on January 13 and involved planning and preparation before the girls were even born. In November last year, aged 11 months, the twins underwent a surgical procedure to place tissue expanders to allow their skin to grow and stretch ready for their separation. Dr. Larry Hollier, surgeon-in-chief and chief of plastic surgery at Texas Children’s Hospital, said: “The success of this incredibly complex surgery was the result of our dedicated team members’ hard work throughout the last year. “Through simulations and countless planning meetings, we were able to prepare for situations that could arise during the separation. “We are thrilled with the outcome and look forward to continuing to care for Anna and Hope as they recover.” The Richards family, from North Texas, learned Jill was carrying conjoined twins during a routine ultrasound.

  • A set of one-year-old conjoined twins who had been sharing part of their hearts have been successful separated following a mammoth seven-hour operation. Anna and Hope Richards were separated at the Texas Children’s Hospital in Texas, it was announced this week, by a multidisciplinary 75-strong team of surgeons, anesthesiologists, cardiologists and nurses. The girls were delivered via C-section on 29 December, 2016, at 35 weeks gestation, weighing a combined 9lbs 12oz (4.4kg) and were conjoined at their chest and abdomen, through the length of their torso and shared the chest wall, pericardial sac (lining of the heart), diaphragm and liver. In addition they had large blood vessels connecting their hearts. The twins are now recovering at the hospital and are expected to be strong enough to go home in about a month’s time. “We've thought about and prayed for this day for almost two years,” their mother Jill Richards said, who welcomed the girls along with her husband Michael and their sons Collin and Seth. “It's an indescribable feeling to look at our girls in two separate beds.” The epic surgery was carried out on January 13 and involved planning and preparation before the girls were even born. In November last year, aged 11 months, the twins underwent a surgical procedure to place tissue expanders to allow their skin to grow and stretch ready for their separation. Dr. Larry Hollier, surgeon-in-chief and chief of plastic surgery at Texas Children’s Hospital, said: “The success of this incredibly complex surgery was the result of our dedicated team members’ hard work throughout the last year. “Through simulations and countless planning meetings, we were able to prepare for situations that could arise during the separation. “We are thrilled with the outcome and look forward to continuing to care for Anna and Hope as they recover.” The Richards family, from North Texas, learned Jill was carrying conjoined twins during a routine ultrasound.

  • October 14, 2017 - Munich, Bavaria, Germany - Despite lengthy battles, the so-called Stolpersteine (“Stumbling Blocks”) containing the names & information of victims of National Socialism were installed at four different sites in Munich.

  • CHENGDU, Sept. 7, 2016 (Xinhua) -- Photo taken on Sept. 7, 2016 shows a giant panda in Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding in Chengdu, southwest China's Sichuan Province. A Chinese giant panda expert said on Tuesday that it is too early to downgrade the conservation status of the species after the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) took the species off its endangered list on Sunday. The IUCN said in a report that the panda is now classified as ''vulnerable'' instead of ''endangered,'' reflecting growing numbers in the wild in southern China. The union attributed the increase in population to decades of dedicated conservation efforts in China. (Xinhua/Xue Yubin) (wx) (Credit Image: © Xue Yubin/Xinhua via ZUMA Wire)
