Dr Frank Serebour, the Pediatric Surgeon said, "I think the surgery went well, but sometimes after surgery the issues about post surgical care is also another thing all together".
What is this! A complete 'tautology' in a sense which indicates the 'confused' state of the Doctors. They should say it all in a GO, and not feeding BITS into the medium, aggravating the parent of the 'dead' twins. Also, the POLICE must be taking notes which would help make its investigation, a success.

Ghanaian Doctors used to be quite good. However because of the useless form of education introduced during that stupid Rawlings' time, now the standard of Ghana's education has fallen from grace to grass. Ghanaian Doctors used to perform surgery with precision and confidence. It is just pathetic to hear people boasting of all kinds of degrees when in actual fact, the standard is simply below the 'O'Level of the good old days. I don't blame these quack Doctors but lay all the blame on this 'ofiri djato'(Rawlings) who brought about this shoddy type of education and sent all his children to be educated abroad. Anyway, this operation could have been done for free in Australia. Big shame on our politicians who continue to steal the country's money to further their egoistic agendas.

Let us stop this debate and encourage the medical team to learn from this experience for future surgeries. Lives may subsequently be saved.

What is nice about this - undertaking complicated surgery without proper pre-operative imaging - in this day and age. Granted radiological imaging do not always give fullproof information nevertheless attempts should have been made to determine the extent of every single organ involvement before proceeding. And they are not even ashamed to air their ignorance even when the whole world is watching. When lives are are stake, there is nothing like a nice try. This is mediocrity to the highest level and is no different to the open and close approach of surgery of bygone days. Laughable!!!!!!

They get away with these silly excuses all the time. The GMA is a mafia organization. They protect each other in order to hide their incompetence. My little brother couldn't help laughing when he came down with colleague clinicians (physicians & surgeons)from the UK to visit a few government hospitals in Ghana. They realized the doctors were trying to impress them by bragging about basic things which the demigods in Ghana considered to be specialist areas. They met an doctor at Korle-Bu who bragged about their ability to maintain the gap between the doctors and other health workers. Certainly, there is no team work in Ghana but selfishness.

In other countries the doctors will make public their plans for the operation. The scans, where they are going to cut or separate all on TV before the operation. they said one had hole in heart and they did not know before the operation? They said the twins shared bowels and they did not know? They should not blame the facilities they new all these before the operation on the poor twins. Why even do such operation at such tender age. Were they in danger and needed this surgery? I do not know the team and i can not talk about reputation but i think they did not take many many things into consideration.

What a n unbelievable revelation and a shocker. These make our medical system horribly a huge joke.
How could such a challenging clinical operation even began without you Doctors properly making sure that every thing that might cause danger to the patient is carefully studied to avoid any death or harm to the patient life?
You can not use human beings as pigs for research work and turn round to give unacceptable excuses. The Doctors and their team should be held responsible for murdering these innocent twins. Period!
To be frank the first question that came in mind as I follow the surgery, was have the Doctors taken the proper decisions, timing, made all the proper clinical research, X'rays and then came the shocking picture of the surgery theater that horrified me as it looks like a butchers place without the normal expectant modern clinical equipments, with an old dirty oxygen cylinder by their side.
The entire Ghana hospital system is a complete death trap. No wonder the criminally corrupt heartless politicians always fly to foreign countries with their families for medical treatments.
Hopefully, the pathetic death of our late President Atta Mills shamefully at a maternity hall, the untold rates of maternity deaths killing mothers with their unborn babies and the sorrowful news of the death of the twins should be a wake up call on our health authorities and government.
Please, stop paying dubious settlement monies into individual criminal pockets, the huge unnecessary budget deficits and let's put our national priorities and needs first.
Healthy human resource is the foundation of a sound economy.

I would have expected contrast studies including MRI to delineate all the organs including what was shared before deciding to operate. To say you did not know they shared certain structures or bowel means you did not have all the facilities to investigate thoroughly, hence you should not have proceeded with the surgery. I will not mind if they died of unpreventable complications, but to suggest inadequate evaluation prior to surgery suggest some desire to be heroic and perhaps borders on negligence.

The separation of conjoint twins has never been an emergency. The emergency only starts after the surgery. To proceed without the ability to undertake all the necessary assessments such as identifying commonly shared viscera and vessels, effective cardiac evaluation to exclude congenital heart disease in a way does not make medical sense. If you have resources to raise funds to even bring experts from abroad which some of us could have facilitated, that should have been done and eventually pressure would be put on the government to help resource all the top hospitals in Ghana. Sadly there are people in Ghana able to afford private jets, rolls-royce as as politicians. There is no single Ghanaian politician- MP or Minister, who does not drive a 4x4, and we cannot afford an MRI scan in all our Regional hospitals- this is the disaster we should be debating as a country.

This type of treatment is multidisciplinary to achieve success. You need proper preoperative radiological assessment by experts who can interprete the scans. You need paediatrician (neonatologists), paediatric cardiologists, paediatric anaesthetists, paediatric intensive care specialisits as well the specialist paediatric surgeons and nurses.
Whereas equipment is important it is the team approach to assessment, planning, operation and postoperative care that determines survival or otherwise.
This is a wakeup call to all health professionals to demand and embrace team working. The public deserves and must demand high standards from its hospitals

As a fellow physician,we ought to give them some respect and be proud that an attempt to separate these twins was made. every surgery has it complications. And in order for them to have decided to even perform the surgery,they had thought of all the odds. Please this isnt the time for insults but rather a time to pray for the family. Do believe that medicine isnt easy and it is only by God's grace when you walk into an OR and you come out with your patient alive. May their souls rest in peace.

I sadly disagree with you. The hole in the heart was after the fact and now the commonality of intestines is also after the fact. These infants were not lab rats. For such a major operation, should'nt the Ghanaian Doctors know all the facts? This try and error mentality among medical professionals anywhere in the world should be condenmed. The twins should have been left to live out their normal lives. This is absolute incompetence that cries out loud to high heavens. May their souls rest in peace indeed!

I do agree. I am not condoing what happened but a hole in the heart cant be a complication of surgery if the thorax wasnt involved. From the report,the shared bowels was the problem. How were the twins even joined? There are alot of loop holes in the report. All we know is they are dead due to unforeseen shared bowel. They arent lab rats but medicine isnt as simple as it seems. Maybe the necessary equipments werent available. Who knows,its everyone's best guess but what can we do to prevent this from happening again. There are alot of incompetent doctors but i doubt thats what my country has. If that is the case,then may God help us all.Smh

Goway u. Kwasia. Whether GMA or KATH or 'onye aye e sorrmi', we don't care. All we say is that Ghanaian dogtors and their bitch nurses bluff too much before even killing their patients. Look at the death rate in Ghana. Ages 20, 25, 32, etc and u say wetin ?
If u want to praise Ghana doctors u will be dissapointed one day. They don't care, but the cuban doctors are friendly , so fuck off with that devilish of the 17 witch doctors who butchered the 2 innocent conjoined babies to death forgeting to simply have a scan, but only thinking of making a name to the mother fucker salaries.

The truth is Dr Serebour is not a surgeon, he is a paediatrician. It makes me wonder whether teh whole report is true.
In any case, there are many instances when surgeons have opened up and saw something they never expected- that is where experience and dexterity comes in.
What did were we expecting out of our doctors when the Ghana College of physicians and surgeons was quickly set up and any one who passed and exam became a 'specialist'?
Not sure how many paediatric surgeons there are in KATH?? Probabaly one or 2.
I think Ghana needs to reconsider it's decision to train specialists locally- there are not enough specialists and subspecialists to run these postgraduate taining- at least a part of teh postgraduate training must be done outside , especially for delicate specialities like paediatric surgery, plastics radiology etc!

you cannot as a surgeon embark upon a major surgery without knowing what you're likely to face.What happened to the extensive pre-op evaluation which should have included an MRI of the chest and abdomen?You cannot do these kinds of elective surgeries without the help of these standard imaging studies.Perhaps, the outcome would have been the same anyway. This case should be discussed at the mortality conference at KATH so that those involved can learn from it.I am a physician and I commend the docs for the bold attempt but in modern medicine, there is no room for '' WE DID NOT KNOW THEY SHARED SINGLE INTESTINES" BECAUSE there is a way to evaluate BEFORE SURGERY.Please this was not an emergency but an elective surgery .

What negligence!! Why the rush to separate the twins if you were unsure?
All they know is strikes and the quick screaming for salary increment, but when it comes to defending the salaries they fail woefully.
Most of these Doctors would be languishing in jail had it not been practicing in Ghana. This is not the first negligence; many have died in the hands of these strike-loving-know-nothing Doctors (excluding the ones always not in support of strike at the expense of precious lives) after suffering from less critical sicknesses. The painful thing is that, they walk away free without any legal slaps on them.
What is wrong if you invite experts from other countries or from other hospitals?
I hope they don't begin blaming lack of equipments and less favorable environment; the reason you should not even dare to operate!
These guys ought to be held accountable for the passing of the twins.
I hope Ghanaians now would understand why they do not deserve some increments the same way they will condemn any foolish strike action coming from them.

Similar conjoined twins were recently separated at the Philadelphia Children's Hospital (CHOP) after good 10 months of monitoring. They were joined at the lower chest and abdomen.
If in the USA where the conditions are more favorable medically, twins of this nature would be monitored for 10 good months why the rush on the part of these Doctors? I am really hurt! The Philadelphia twins (Amelia and Allison) formerly shared their chest wall, diaphragm, pericardium and liver.
Just Google separated Philadelphia twins and see the meticulous work done by the Doctors and their staff.

First and foremost, my heartfelt sympathy goes to the bereaved family.
I also want to show my love and respect to the colleagues for their courage and patriotism/sacrifices, considering the very brutal circumstances they have to work with and under. Playing 'Monday morning quarterback' would not only be unprofessional, but also very stupid, insensitive and beyond condescending.
WE ARE GUIDED, PROFESSIONALLY, BY THE ETHICAL PRINCIPLES OF AUTONOMY[in this case the involvement of Surrogate decision makers, usually the parents], BENEFICENCE, NONMALEFICENCE AND JUSTICE. God knows we all make mistakes[ lots of them ] all the time; that is why Malpractce insurance is otherwordly.
While we all have to learn from our mistakes, every now and then, it is usually how we handle ourselves honestly and diplomatically that can make or unmake us. I CAN UNDERSTAND THE EXCITEMENT THAT CAN GO WITH BEING "PIONEERS"; NEVERTHELESS, YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN TALKING TOO MUCH PRIOR TO THE PROCEDURE AND THE UNFORTUNATE AFTERMATH, THEREOF. If you have not done adequate pre-surgical imaging studies to feel comfortable to perform this very publicised, but non-emergent( to my knowledge ) procedure then you really must have the courage of a wild hog to be so media-loving about it. The complications/mortalities are astronomically high, even under the best of circumstances. BEN CARLSON LEARNT IT THE VERY HARD AWAY IN FAR AWAY INDONESIA(?).
Again, may God bless you all abundantly for your unparalled dedication. Don't hang your heads; be remorseful but not shameful. JUST LEARN TO SHUT THE FUCK UP, SOMETIMES. There is no fucking excuse to try to seperate DENKYEMFRAFU NE FENKYEMFRAFU(?) sharing an abdomen and not to thoroughly delineate the visceral organs before this 'gargantuan' surgery; we are not talking about the usual mishaps of knicking some tiny nerve fibers or vessels.
KEEP HOPE ALIVE!!!!!! MAY THE DECEASED REST IN PERFECT PEACE. MAY ALLAH, THE BENEFICENT SHOW COMPASSION TO THE BEREAVED FAMILY.

Did you not take any professional images before you started the surgery? You guys are too mechanical so you start working without planning. Incompetent doctors.

I would have expected contrast studies including MRI to delineate all the organs including what was shared before deciding to operate. To say you did not know they shared certain structures or bowel means you did not have all ...

That talk was "bullshit". They should have done their investigations before attempting to do that kind of surgery. The hospital must be sued!!!
so did the doctors refund the money back to the parent all winner take all the 300 million cedis
THAT IS A SHABBY REASON-THE DOCTORS SHOULD HAVE KNOWN ALL ABOUT THE ANATOMICAL STRUCTURES OF THE CONJOINED TWINS BEFORE USING THEIR SCAPELS. THIS IS A MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE OF A VERY SERIOUS NATURE.
How do journalist in ghana work?
Dr frank Serebour is a paediatrician and not a paediatric surgeon!
Sometimes i wonder which part of published stories to belive!
they did their best.ghana doctors are good and they are saving a lot of lives.To God be the glory.
BUT WHY THE HURRY TO CARRY OUT THE SURGERY.IT WOULD HAVE BEEN WORTHWHILE SEEKING FURHER ADVICE FROM EXTERNAL SPECIALIST SOURCES. OUR DOCTORS JUST TOY TOYED WITH LIFES.
I agree for the doctors should have explored further for help overseas.

foolish doctors
seriously?? were there not enough instrumental investigations before the surgery??
You mean no X-Ray was taken of the twins before sending into surgery?
This unbelievable!

I said it. Those kokompe doctors kill the babies. The rate of death at our hospitals proove that.
All those blaming the doctors are pagans. The death of the twins is an act of God, they were not destined to survive the operation. Mah Allah bless the family and have mercy on the souls of the little ones.
Foolish strikers. All they know is waste tax payers money and kill.
Shame unto you idiots. They dont deserve good pay. They cant even copy from the white people's medical book.
What are they talking about? So they didn't do any diagnostic tests (MRI, CAT SCAN, ULTRASOUND, ETC) before the surgery to know what they were getting themselves into? This is strange. Hmm Ghana doctors.
Are they saying they did not know the twins shared the same intestines ?
Negligence....They have to pay.

The doctors want to tell us that they operated on these babies without establishing the full facts about all their organs and so on. What kind of surgeons are these people?
What sort of surgeons do we have in Ghana? I have been a surgeon for years and can`t believe what I have read.I hope that this isn`t true.
ONLY STRIKE ACTION THAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF SHAME ON YOU.HEADLINE 17 DOCTORS SENDS TWINS TO EARLY GRAVE
Much repect for the doctors. Good try. The definition of success is "accumulation of failures.
