Parents Stunned When Baby Is Born with Extra Mouth -- Complete with Lips, Tongue, and Teeth
six months ago, two Charleston, South Carolina, parents were stunned by what they saw. In fact, so were doctors. According to reports, the infant was born with a rare and unanticipated, which included an extra set of lips, teeth, and a tongue.Doctors who spotted it on the scan, however, suspected it was some kind of growth -- such as a cyst or a tumor. The fact that it was a completely separate mouth, independent of the one the baby already had, was definitely a surprise.
In fact, the second mouth was not at all connected to her main mouth, doctors noted in a BMJ case report, and it did not interfere with her ability to breathe or eat normally. It did, however, produce a clear liquid, similar to saliva. Ultimately, the child's parents, who have not been named publicly, chose surgery to remove the extra growth.
