A case of fetus-in- fetu is reported. It occurred in an 8-week-old Korean boy who had been born by cesarean section due to abdominal distension. The fetus-in- fetu was connected to the superior mesenteric artery and consisted of two masses, apparently representing two portions of an acardiac monster. There was an amniotic membrane covering both masses, and the umbilical cord clearly was identifiable. One mass included the brain, eye, trachea, salivary glands, thyroid, pancreas, spleen, etc., while the other mass contained extremity bones, vertebrae, testis, adrenals, and intestinal loops. This is probably a case of separated fetus-in- fetu that showed unusually well-developed internal organs.
报告了一例胎中胎病例。该病例发生在一名8周大的韩国男婴身上,该男婴因腹胀通过剖宫产出生。胎中胎与肠系膜上动脉相连,由两个肿块组成,明显代表无心畸胎的两个部分。有一层羊膜覆盖着两个肿块,脐带清晰可辨。一个肿块包括脑、眼、气管、唾液腺、甲状腺、胰腺、脾脏等,而另一个肿块包含四肢骨骼、椎骨、睾丸、肾上腺和肠袢。这可能是一例分离的胎中胎病例,其内部器官发育异常良好。
