Fused hearts of a two-headed foetus (dicephalus dibrachius)
Godart, Thomas
Watercolour drawing of the fused hearts of a two-headed 'monster' (dicephalus dibrachius). The left heart is normal. The right heart retains the tubular form. It consists of an auricle, which is also common to the left heart and a single ventricular cavity from which a muscular tube (bulbus aortae) passes and gives off the aorta and pulmonary artery.
