Pic shows: the second penis after being removed. A baby boy born with an extra penis on his back has had the second organ surgically removed. The additional penis is believed to be all that was left of a parasitic twin who failed to develop. The operation was carried out at the Scientific Research Institute of Pediatrics in Azerbaijani capital Baku. Head of the institute’s neonatology department Gunduz Agayev said: "The baby has a normal sexual organ where it is supposed to be. The penis on the back is a parasite, which has been surgically removed." He added of the undeveloped parasitic conjoined twin: "Practically all there was left from him was a penis that got attached to the brother’s back inside the womb." The newborn’s back was not badly affected by the penis-removal surgery, said doctors. The baby is already home and according to doctors is not different from any other baby. To protect the baby’s privacy in the future there is no information on where exactly was he born and who his parents are. But it was reported that the parents of the boy and medics attending the birth were shocked by the sight of two penises on his body. Netizen ‘Kam’ said: "Wishing the baby a good health." While another one ‘AYU-Skromniy medved’ commented: "How is it possible that this is all what is left from the second baby?!" One identified as ‘adelya’ mentioned: "This is terrifying." (ends)
يعتقد الأطباء أن هذا العضو يرجع إلى توءم طفيلي فشل في النمو داخل الرحم، ونجح الجراحون في معهد البحوث العلمية لطب الأطفال في أذريبجان بإزالة العضو من ظهر الطفل وأصبح طبيعيا.
ولم يكشف الأطباء عن اسم المولود لكنّه بحالة صحية جيدة وينمو بشكل طبيعي.
وذكر الأطباء أنّهم لم يكتشفوا العضو الإضافي إلّا بعد ولادة الطفل، وقال أحد الأطباء:”ما رأيته مرعب جداً”.
وقال الأطباء: إن ظهر الطفل لم يتأثر بالجراحة، وعاد إلى منزله مرة أخرى مع والديه، اللذين أصيبا بالصدمة بعد معرفة أن طفلهما له عضوان ذكريان.
