Nearly 3-month-old girls believed to be the first known American Indian conjoined twins were separated during a three-hour surgery.
The twins were joined at the chest, and the separation process involved their livers and other tissue. Doctors have said the girls have a good chance at survival because they have separate hearts and shared no major blood vessels.
