Parliament has honoured a 15-member medical team of Soroti Regional Referral hospital who successfully conducted a surgery involving the separation of a dead Siamese twin from her living sister.
The surgery took place in Soroti, six days after the baby was referred to Mulago National Referal hospital in Kampala for tertiary care only to be referred back without help. By that time, the dead baby was decomposing and the team headed by Dr Joseph Epodoi, a senior consultant surgeon conducted a surgery that lasted 15 hours and saved the baby who shared parts with a dead sister.
