Brazilian twins who were born with fused brains, have been separated by surgical procedure in what may have been one of the most complex operations in history.
Conjoined twins Bernardo and Arthur Lima battled through a number of surgical procedures lasting hours on end in Rio de Janeiro, under the direction of UK paediatric surgeon Noor ul Owase Jeelani.

The boys, aged 3 years old, faced more than 33 hours of surgery in their final two procedures alone, involving almost 100 medics.
Bernardo and Arthur are now recovering almost two-and-a-half years after their parents came to the hospital for surgery.
