Foetus in Foetu (The Boy who Gave Birth to his Twin) [Bodyshock]
The malformed twin removed from the belly of a Kazak boy, still alive. Whole program here http://www.channel4.com/programmes/bodyshock/4od#3490725
"Fetus in fetu (or foetus in foetu) is a developmental abnormality in which a mass of tissue resembling a fetus forms inside the body. It is estimated to occur in 1 in 500,000 live births. Alamjan Nematilaev was the surviving host of a fetus in fetu. In 2003, aged 7, his school physician in Kazakhstan referred him to a hospital after movements were detected in the boy's enlarged abdomen. An operation intended to remove a cyst uncovered the fetus of Alamjan's identical twin brother, which had lived as a parasitic growth inside the boy throughout his entire life. The fetus was comparatively highly developed, with hair, arms, fingers, nails, legs, toes, genitals, a head, and a vague approximation of a face."
