Twins Love and Prince, who were born conjoined, are back in Parel's Bai Jerbai Wadia Hospital — this time to get their hips reconstructed and to get incisional hernia repairs. When born on September 19, 2016, the boys were sharing a liver, bladder, intestine and a pelvic bone. They were separated in a challenging, 12-hour surgery on December 12, 2017.
Now three-and-a-half years old and housed in room no. 15 of the children's hospital, the brothers are due for a battery of tests and scans before a team of paediatric experts from urology, orthopaedics, anaesthetics, and general surgery decide on the next course of action and fix a date for the surgery in the coming week.
