Ganga Shrestha underwent a four-hour successful surgery Thursday at a Singapore hospital to repair a cleft palate three months after a landmark operation to separate her from her twin sister Jamuna, reports from the island said.
They were joined at the head; Siamese twins joined at the head occur only one in five million births. They are expected to live normal lives after returning home in weeks.
Surgeons operated for a marathon 96 hours to separate them. Singaporeans paid for the rare operation.
