BEIJING - CHINESE doctors were shocked when they discovered a
one-year-old girl was carrying a baby in her stomach.
According to media outlets on Wednesday, Kang Mengru, 1, worried
her parents and doctors after her belly became grossly
enlarged.
After a CT scan was done, the doctors were amazed to discover a
foetus inside the little girl's stomach.
The foetus is believed to be Mengru's parasitic twin, the result
of one twin embryo not fully separating from the other.
Mengru has been hospitalised and is waiting for an operation to
have the foetus removed.
