Removal of Rausch Twins from List
[edit]As Ben Carson has become a more public figure, I have done some research. In the movie based on his life, Giving Hands: The Ben Carson Story, it details his work to separate the Rausch twins. The issue is, if you research "Rausch twins Ben Carson" you discover all of the information is about the "Binder twins" from Ulm, Germany who were the first twins separated by Ben Carson. It is my belief that this listing was mistakenly taken from the movie and instead is meant to describe the Binder twins. I believe they (the Binder twins) may be worth adding to the list of notable cases of craniopagus twins but I need some help confirming this prior to adding them. In the mean time, I pasted the "Rausch twins" information that I pulled from the page below in case someone has a citation to prove the existence of a second set of craniopagus twins from Ulm, Germany separated by Ben Carson.
- Johann and Stefan Rausch from Ulm, Germany were separated successfully at Johns Hopkins Children's Center by a team of surgeons led by Ben Carson.RedDarling (talk) 16:45, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
