A Chinese baby boy born to farmer dad Li Jun, 30, with a second penis on his back spent three hours in surgery on June 6 to have the extra manhood removed.

The baby had a rare condition called fetus in fetu (FIF), a condition where twins fail to develop normally in the womb and one becomes conjoined or reabsorbed.

The second penis was attached to the spine and nervous system of the infant. The three hour long operation to remove the penis posed a high degree of difficulty, but was completed successfully, the baby was fine after surgery.
