VIDEO: Baby with rare condition born with two mouths and six teeth

By Citizen Reporter

Doctors in Charleston, South Carolina, have been left baffled after a baby girl was born with two mouths, an extra lip and a set of six teeth and a small tongue that reportedly moved at the same time as the tongue in her main mouth.

This is due to a rare condition that has been seen in only 35 people since 1900.

Sky News reports the abnormality was first picked up on a scan during the mother’s third trimester, with initial diagnoses including a cyst, bone disorder or teratoma.

Doctors performed an operation to remove the additional facial features and six months later, she is reportedly unaffected.
