Euracare provides free scans to Siamese twins conjoined at the head
First time in Ghana, Euracare Advanced Diagnostics and Heart Centre provides free Cerebral Angiogram for Conjoined twins (Craniopagus).
As part of preparing for a life-saving separation surgery for the twin babies, Euracare Advanced Diagnostics and Heart Centre carried out an angiogram on June 4th, which will be the first out of several scans the twins will be subjected to in the next 12 to 18 months for the separation.
It took 6 hours for a team of 13 medical staff including four anesthesiologists to transport the babies and administer the scans.
Craniopagus are exceedingly rare, with an incident of one in 2,5 million birth, making it difficult for surgeons to master all techniques around such cases. Euracare assembled its best team to undertake this complex procedure as a Corporate Social Responsibility initiative.
The success of this operation will make history as this is the first attempt to separate conjoined babies at the head in the country.
Euracare’s team is extremely proud of being part of this pioneering medical procedure in Ghana.
World Multiple Sclerosis Day, May 30
World MS Day takes place every year on the 30 May. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic progressive disease of the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system). In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibres and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body.
Eventually, the disease can cause permanent damage or deterioration of the nerves. Signs and symptoms of MS vary widely, depending on the amount of nerve damage, and which nerves are affected. Some people with severe MS may lose the ability to walk independently or become totally dependent, while others may experience long periods of remission without any new symptoms.
There is no cure for multiple sclerosis. However, treatments can help speed recovery from attacks, modify the course of the disease, slow progression and manage symptoms. MS was thought to be a white man’s disease in our part of the world but in recent times, the number of cases seem to be on the rise.
Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40. MS is two to three times more common in women than in men. There is no drug that can cure MS, but treatments are available which can modify the course of the disease.
