📄 Report Sample Line- Living oropharyngeal fetus in fetu
Shows a well-defined, partially developed fetal structure located within the oropharyngeal region of the host fetus. The mass demonstrates organized axial skeletal elements, including a vertebral column, limb buds, and cranial structures, consistent with a parasitic twin. Notably, there is evidence of vascular perfusion and cardiac activity within the mass, indicating a rare “living” oropharyngeal fetus in fetu.


Conclussion: 📋 Findings are consistent with a rare case of "living" oropharyngeal fetus in fetu, characterized by the presence of a partially developed parasitic twin within the oropharyngeal region of the host fetus. The presence of organized fetal parts and detectable cardiac activity within the mass confirms its viability. This condition poses a significant risk of airway obstruction at birth and may be associated with feeding and craniofacial developmental complications.
Recommendation: Fetal MRI is recommended for detailed anatomical mapping, particularly to assess
