In an extremely rare case, an unborn twin was discovered in the brain of a 1-year-old girl in China. The rare phenomenon is known as fetus-in-fetu . The unborn twin surfaced on scans after the infant was brought in with an enlarged head and problems with motor skills. The foetus of an unborn twin was removed from the brain of its one-year-old sister in a rare surgery. Fetus-in-fetu, sometimes called a parasitic twin, occurs when twins become conjoined in utero, but only one continues to develop. The undeveloped twin is often absorbed into the body of the developing twin. Baby Girl Born With Extremely Rare 2-Inch-Long 'True Tail' Covered in Hair and Skin in Northeastern Mexico (View Tweet).
