A 23-year-old young mother simply identified as Wu, has reportedly
terminated her 6-months pregnancy after finding out she was carrying a
mermaid-like foetus in her womb when she was examined by doctors in
Yichang City, in Central China's Hubei Province.
According to a shocking report by Dailymail,
the lady's scans showed that her unborn child did not have two legs,
but instead had a 'tail' like growth, and also did not have a bladder
and had a stunted liver.
It was learnt that doctors at the hospital told the woman that the
foetus was suffering from a condition known as sirenomelia, or 'Mermaid
Syndrome', a rare congenital deformity in which the legs are fused
together, giving them the appearance of a mermaid's tail.

Despite carrying the foetus for half a year, Wu decided to
terminate her pregnancy after specialists estimated that the baby would
only be able to survive for a few hours after birth.
The causes of Mermaid Syndrome are still a medical mystery, and it is said to occur only once in every 100,000 pregnancies.
