While at Johns Hopkins, Carson figured in the revival of the, a drastic surgical procedure in which part or all of one hemisphere of the brain is removed to control severe pediatric. Encouraged by, he refined the procedure in the 1980s and performed it many times.
In 1987, Carson was the lead neurosurgeon of a 70-member surgical team that separated, who had been joined at the back of the head ; the separation surgery held promise in part because the twin boys had separate brains. Both boys entered the hospital 'giggling and kicking' in preparation for surgery without which the seven-month-old twins would never have been able to crawl, walk, or even turn over. The Johns Hopkins surgical team rehearsed the surgery for weeks, practising on two dolls secured together. Although follow-up stories were few following the Binder twins' return to Germany seven months after the operation, both twins were reportedly 'far from normal' two years after the procedure, with one in a. 'I will never get over this. Why did I have them separated?' Said their mother, Theresia Binder, in a 1993 interview.
Neither twin was ever able to talk or care for himself, and both would eventually become institutionalized. Patrick Binder died sometime during the last decade, according to his uncle, who was located by the Washington Post in 2015. The Binder surgery served as blueprint for similar twin separations, a procedure that was refined in subsequent decades. Carson participated in four subsequent high-risk conjoined twin separations, including a 1997 operation on craniopagus twins, which resulted in a normal neurological outcome. Two sets of twins died, including twins; another separation resulted in the death of one twin and the survival of another, who is legally blind and struggles to walk. According to the Washington Post, the Binder surgery 'launched the stardom' of Carson, who 'walked out of the operating room that day into a spotlight that has never dimmed', beginning with a press conference that was covered worldwide, which created name recognition leading to publishing deals and a career.
On the condition the film would have its premiere in, Carson agreed to a cameo appearance as 'head surgeon' in the 2003 ' comedy, starring and as conjoined twins who, unhappy after their surgical separation, continue life attached to each other by Velcro.

Three years ago I had an endowed chair bestowed upon me and uh, it requires $2.5 million to do an endowed chair and I'm proud to say that part of that $2.5 million came from Mannatech.' In October 2015, Carson's campaign team said 'there was no contribution from Mannatech to Johns Hopkins', and his statement had been 'a legitimate mistake on his part.
He had been doing some fundraising for the hospital and some other chairs about that time, and he simply got things mixed up.' During the GOP debate on October 28, 2015, Carson was asked about his relationship with Mannatech. He replied, 'That's easy to answer. I didn't have any involvement with Mannatech. Total propaganda. I did a couple speeches for them. I did speeches for other people—they were paid speeches.
It is absolutely absurd to say I had any kind of relation with them. Do I take the product? I think it is a good product.' Rated Carson's denial of any involvement as 'false', pointing to his paid speeches for Mannatech and his appearances in promotional videos in which he favorably reviewed its products, despite not being 'an official spokesman or sales associate'.
