The embryonic twin with bone, hair and teeth.
“It was like something from [the movie] 'Alien,'” The doctor, told the reporter.
While we've seen enough horror movies about evil twins, truth is still stranger than fiction. A 26-year-old woman had a shocking and freaky revelation when doctors told her that the brain tumor she thought she had turned out to be her embryonic twin. The chilling part is that it had bone, hair and teeth.
Yamini Karanam, an Indiana University Ph.D. student, went to doctors after she started noticing that she had problems understanding what she was listening to and reading, NBC Los Angeles reports. After consulting with neurologists and neurosurgeons who couldn't agree what was causing her medical issues, she reached out to Dr. Hrayr Shahinian at the Skullbase Institute in Los Angeles.
Shahinian thought she had a brain tumor and scheduled a surgery to remove it. One of Karanam's friends even set up a crowdsourced fundraiser to help pay for the surgery.
