Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, adviser at the Royal Court and general supervisor of the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief), said that Aisha Ahmed Saeed Mahimoud is stable and she can return to Yemen after two months.
Aisha, the Yemeni parasitic twin girl, had a surgery to separate her from the parasitic twin. Dr. Al-Rabeeah and his team carried out, on July 29, a successful surgery at the King Abdullah Specialty Children’s Hospital in Riyadh.
Aisha was on Monday transferred from intensive care to the pediatric department at King Abdullah Specialty Children’s Hospital in King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh at the Ministry of National Guard, he added.
Dr. Al-Rabeeah explained that a splint was placed under Aisha's pelvis to ensure its stability so that she could move and walk in the future.
He also noted that she would need to close the colostomy hole in the abdominal wall, with rehabilitation for physiotherapy in the coming weeks.
Al-Rabeeah said that Aisha has started breastfeeding and that she is now interacting and responding normally to her parents. He added that she would be able to return with them to Yemen within the next two months.
The surgery was carried out in the implementation of the directive of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman to transfer her from Al-Mahra Governorate to the Kingdom to undergo the separation process and receive treatment.
The successful operation was carried out by a special medical team led by Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah at King Abdullah Specialist Children’s Hospital in King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh, which is affiliated with the Ministry of National Guard in Riyadh.
