Man Gets Routine Check-Up – Doctor Looks At X-Ray And Whispers: “I’m Sorry”

Initial speculations of his assistants leaned towards the possibility of a peculiar case of vanishing twin syndrome. This phenomenon involves one twin absorbing the other during the early stages of pregnancy, sometimes leading to the surviving twin bearing two sets of DNA. However, such cases rarely resulted in the absorbed twin continuing to grow within the surviving sibling years later.

As the medical team delved deeper into this medical enigma, they concluded that Rohan’s case was an instance of a supremely rare condition known as Fetus-in-fetu. This condition is characterized by the presence of one twin inside the body of the other. Historically, it was a rarity of such magnitude that there had only been one documented case in the late 19th century, where a mother believed she had prematurely given birth to her child, only to discover it was her undeveloped twin. The realization that they were witnessing this extraordinary medical condition firsthand was as astounding as it was unsettling.
