A baby was born with two working penises but no anus in a rare medical case in Pakistan. The Medical experts described as a rare disease called Diphallia.

Doctors in their paper, published in International Journal of Surgery Case Reports, said Diphallia is extremely rare urological anomaly with reported incidence of 1 in 5-6 million live births.

Doctors conducted an operation to create an opening with a colonoscopy so that the baby could pass stools.

As per report, the baby boy was being treated at the Children’s Hospital at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences.

The boy was taken to the hospital’s emergency department straight after he was born. He was under observation for two days after the surgery. He was then discharged and a follow-up appointment was arranged.

The case was reported in the International Journal of Surgery Case Reports where it warned of a higher risk of mortality due to the rarity of the condition.

“The higher complexity and mortality associated with diphallia is because of the accompanying anomalies of the urogenital and gastrointestinal system,” it read.

Notably, only 100 cases of diphallia have been recorded in medical literature, with the first dating back to 1609.
