{AMAZING} A New Born Baby Is Pregnant From Womb With Twins In Hong Kong
A newborn baby girl in Hong Kong was born pregnant with twin fetuses.
Although the incident occurred in 2010, the case recently gained publicity after it was referenced in a new report in the Hong Kong Medical Journal.
The baby was born at Queen Elizabeth Hospital
in Hong Kong. When the two growths were first discovered in her
abdomen, doctors first thought they were tumours. However, upon further
investigation, it was discovered that they were twin fetuses, People Magazine reports.
The study stated that “the fetuses were
developed enough that they each had a spine, intestines, bones with bone
marrow, “primitive” brain matter, an anus, a rib cage and an umbilical
cord.”
According to reports, the baby’s condition is rare. It is called fetus-in-fetu, and less than 200 cases have been documented to date.
“Since it is impossible for the little girl to have conceived the pregnancy on her own, the fertilization of the twin fetuses, of course, belongs to her parents, which has gone to the wrong place,” said, Yu Kai-man a medical professional.
The baby eventually underwent surgery to
remove the fetuses, when she was just 3 weeks old. Researchers revealed
that the fetuses had gestated up to 10 weeks.
