Língua Inglesa Pág. 9 de 12 01 During a 16-week ultrasound, Margaret Boemer, carrying the surviving twin, Lynlee, 02 discovered that her unborn baby had a massive, fast-growing sacrococcygeal teratoma (SCT). 03 By 20 weeks, the tumor was nearly the size of the baby, consuming much of her blood supply. 04 As a result, her heart had to work harder and harder, which threatened to cause fatal cardiac 05 arrest. While other doctors suggested the termination of pregnancy, a specialist team at Texas 06 Children’s Hospital (TCH) proposed a highly risky, experimental fetal surgery with no survival 07 guarantees for mother or child. At 23 weeks pregnant, surgeons opened Margaret's uterus and 08 pulled part of Lynlee's body out. During the five-hour procedure, Lynlee's heart temporarily 09 stopped, but doctors revived her and successfully removed 90% of the tumor. They then placed 10 the baby back into the uterus to continue growing. Finally, on June 6, 2016, Lynlee was 11 successfully delivered, and just eight days later, doctors could remove the remainder of the 12 tumor. Because of her incredible journey, Lynlee became famous worldwide as the "baby who 13 was born twice." Compiled and adapted from: TEXAS CHILDREN’S. Meet Lynlee, who was born twice. [S. l.], 2018.
