Houston Doctors Perform Marathon Surgery To Separate Conjoined Twins

An American family's year-long tribulation has finally come to an end as doctors in Houston performed a miraculous surgery to separate 10-month-old conjoined twins.

Born in April 2014, twins Knatalye Hope and Adeline Faith Mata who shared several organs will finally have separate bodies.

Parents Eric and Elysse Mata can now breathe easy after a pioneering surgery was performed successfully, separating the twins who shared lungs, liver, intestines, chest wall, pelvic region and pericardial sac, which lines the heart.
