Description: This fetus was a slaughter house specimen, weighing about 20 kg and thought to be about 10 months of gestation - a month beyond the normal duration of pregancy. Perosomus horridus is a fetal monster with general fusion of bones in joints and muscle contractures. The spine is short due to double S-shaped lateral twisting of the vertebrae. To the extent these anomolies are genetically based, they may be minimized by commercial artificial insemination.
