Baby girl born with twin inside stomach in extreme medical rarity: report

A baby girl born in Israel earlier this month had the embryo of a twin inside her stomach, in what medical officials say was a 1-in-500,000 medical rarity.

The case of “fetus-in-fetu” occurred at Assuta Medical Center in Ashod, Israel, according to The Times of Israel.

“We were surprised to discover that it was an embryo,” Omer Globus, director of neonatology at the hospital, told the newspaper.
