CONJOINED twin girls who were separated in a 20-hour operation were in critical condition on Friday and one was in danger of dying, according to the director of the Luis Calvo Mackenna Hospital in Santiago, Chile's capital, where they are being treated.
Doctors have been closely watching the 10-month-old twins for any complications since last Tuesday's operation and Hospital director Osvaldo Artaza said that Maria Jose suffered "an episode of cardiac complications that required resuscitation and extraordinary measures." "That means that Maria Jose ... has a certain risk of dying," he suggested.
