, this condition is especially rare and, perhaps unsurprisingly, exceptionally difficult to treat.
In fact, surgeons had already failed at multiple attempts to detach the boys, which had led to a buildup of scar tissue, further diminishing the hope for a successful separation. To counter the many obstacles presented by the nature of craniopagus, as well as the extensive scarring, the team of surgeons — which, thanks to the use of VR technology, included medical professionals from around the world — used VR as a tool to limit risk and predict outcomes.
Using MRI and CT scans, the surgeons worked with VR engineers to create a perfect digital modeling of the boys' entangled anatomy. In doing so, they were not only able to "see" into the twins' fused brains, but were also given the opportunity to trial different surgery techniques.
The real-life surgery took 27 hours and over 100 medical personnel in total. Fortunately, everything went according to plan and the twins areThe operation's success may open the door to the application of VR to a number of other surgical interventions, even beyond complex cases of craniopagus., "can and should be replicated for other super-rare conditions."
