The medical abnormality shown in the image is Diprosopus (also known as craniofacial duplication). What it is: It is an extremely rare congenital condition where all or part of the facial features are duplicated on a single head and body. Cause: Unlike true conjoined twins, diprosopus is not caused by the incomplete separation of two embryos; rather, it results from abnormal signaling activity of a protein during embryonic development (specifically the Sonic Hedgehog or SHH pathway).
