Conjoined Twins Who Share One Body, Given Birth To At Indonesian Hospital. (Photos)
In a rare case of delivering baby twins, this conjoined twins were
delivered on Monday in a hospital in Gresik on the East Java province of
Indonesia.
The infant delivered on Monday is currently in an incubator under the
care of nurses at Ibnu Sina General Hospital. The girl weighed in at
4.2 kg and was diagnosed with Parapagus, a rare form of partial twinning
where there are two heads and two necks side by side on one torso.
She was also diagnosed with respiratory failure from the minute of
birth. The infant has been attached to a heart and respiratory monitor
as doctors and nurses keep a close watch on the toddler.This disorder is
different from conjoined twins as the baby has only one set of internal
organs.
Due to there being only one heart it makes it impossible to separate
them and save both their lives. The extremely rare case is thought to be
brought on during the early stages of pregnancy as a result of genetic
mutation.
