Ecuadorian conjoined twins José Luis and José Armando die at 27

José Luis and José Armando Cevallos, the Ecuadorian conjoined twins known for living 27 years joined at the thorax, have passed away in Colombia. The brothers died following sudden medical complications.

Reports indicate that José Luis suffered a heart attack first after experiencing vomiting and illness. Shortly after, José Armando suffered a cardiac arrest, leading to the death of both brothers. A close associate, Fernando Carrillo, suggested that a kidney infection may have triggered the cardiac events.

The brothers, who shared a liver and intestines, had previously defied medical expectations regarding their life expectancy. They had recently appeared on the Spanish program ‘Y ahora Sonsoles’, where they reaffirmed their bond by stating, ‘We were born together, we will die together.’
