Can you imagine the discomfort of this little girl? I am glad the operation was a success and I hope she recovers quickly.

The two bodies, believed to be triplets that did not fully develop, were successfully removed from the girl Tuesday during a five-hour surgery, the head of medical services at the main state hospital in the West Sumatra city of Padang told AFP. The girl had initially been diagnosed with stomach tumors, however doctors later discovered her abdominal discomfort was the result of two deceased siblings connected to her digestive tract. One of the bodies was complete except for limbs. The second had only a head with hairs and part of its digestive system. |
