Yup! Those were teratomas- a sort of weird tumour thing. Unlike your average growth they contain DNA, and can atually have teeth, hair and other features, although they aren't embryos. Fetus in fetu is a different condition, even more rare than the kind of teratoma implied in the story.

(I did quite a bit of research for this, y'see. Although I'm seriously regretting the Google Image Search I did on teratomas... generally around 3am... yeucch.)

Thnaks to all those who took part- the Tale of the Lung Fetus seems to be going strong. If you're interested, I'm now working on a follow up in the Magick. Build your own ghost is an attempt to create an artificial haunting as the medium for the spell. It's shaping up to be a kind of synthesis of Bloody Mary and the Ebay Haunted Painting. Creative input would be very welcome.
