Parasitic twin within spina bifida

African Journal of Paediatric Surgery, Volume 9, No. 3, Year 2012

Spinal dysraphisms in association with accessory limbs are extremely rare congenital anomalies. The potential mechanisms of development and classification of these anomalies remain unclear. We report a unique case of a baby boy with an accessory foot and external genitalia in association with spina bifida.
