separation of twins

Separation of twins refers to the physical or emotional division of twins who were once connected, such as in cases of conjoined twins or siblings raised apart. Conjoined twins are physically joined at birth, and separation surgery aims to divide them while preserving vital functions. Sometimes, twins raised separately may experience psychological or emotional separation as they develop individual identities. Overall, separation involves careful coordination of medical, psychological, and social factors to ensure the well-being of each twin. The process varies depending on the twins' specific circumstances and health needs.
