Rare Twins

When Mackenzie and Macy Garrison were born in a hospital in Atlanta, Georgia, along with a third, triplet sister, doctors were stunned. The Garrison twins were conjoined at the abdomen sharing a single liver, and were in need of an incredibly complex surgery to separate them. Enter Dr. James Stein, one of the most highly regarded surgeons in the country. Dr. Stein has extensive experience in separating conjoined twins, and he was chosen to lead the team that would attempt to separate the Garrison twins. The surgery was scheduled to take place in the spring of 2021.

Dr. Stein has been preparing for months in advance for this surgery. He and his team have been reviewing the Garrison twins’ medical records and imaging to ensure that they have a comprehensive understanding of the twins’ anatomy. The team has also been conducting practice drills to refine the technique that will be used during the actual surgery. The team has also been working to ensure that the Garrison family is as prepared as possible for the procedure. The family has been briefed on the risks associated with the surgery, and the team has also been helping the family with the emotional and psychological aspects of the process.

The surgery to separate the Garrison twins is expected to take several hours and will require an incredibly skilled team. The team will need to carefully separate the shared organs and reconstruct the abdominal wall. Further, the team will need to be prepared to quickly respond to any surgical complications that may arise. Dr. Stein and his team are confident that the surgery will be a success. The Garrison family is also hopeful that the surgery will result in a positive outcome. As the surgery approaches, both the family and the team are filled with anticipation and optimism. The surgery to separate the Garrison twins is expected to be complex and challenging. However, with the skill and expertise of Dr. Stein and his team, the twins have a good chance of being successfully separated.
