Eight-month-old twins from Haywards Heath owe their lives to Professor Kypros Nicolaides' surgical expertise. Diagnosed with twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome, their mother, Katerina Ahouansou, sought help after a routine scan revealed the issue. The specialized laser technique offered by Professor Nicolaides at King's College Hospital redistributed the twins' blood supply, vital for their survival. Following the procedure, the smaller twin showed improvement within a week. The twins were born healthy, and their names honor their lifesaving surgeon, reflecting their mother’s gratitude for his dedication to fetal medicine and innovation.
Katerina Ahouansou referred to Professor Kypros Nicolaides as "proof that miracles can be performed by people who are devotees to their profession."
Professor Nicolaides noted that there was a very high chance both twins could die without intervention during a scan.
