BANGALORE: The condition of two-year-old Lakshmi, who was separated from her parasitic twin in a complex 27-hour surgery, "continued to be stable" on Saturday.
"She is stable and doing well," Dr Sharan Patil, head of the 36-member team that operated on Lakshmi at Sparsh Hospital, said on Saturday.
"She has withstood the surgery well," he said.
However, it would take some time before she is moved out of the Intensive Care Unit.
"Some of her parameters still have to stabilize and it might take some time," Patil said.
The little girl was taken out of the ventilator on Friday.
Lakshmi had a parasitic conjoined twin fused together at the pelvis and was brought to the Sparsh Hospital, a part of the Narayana Health City, from a village in Araria district of Bihar by her parents Shambu and Poonam on October three.
The complicated surgical procedure, which removed her four extra limbs, ended Wednesday morning and since then Lakshmi had been making steady progress.
