“唇裂”近段一直新聞不斷。先是某論壇爆料小菲女是唇裂;日前,臥龍中國保護大熊貓研究中心的小熊貓崽竟也患有唇裂;連日來,一篇題為《引產(chǎn)日記》的帖子更是引爆各大知名網(wǎng)站社區(qū),自稱準(zhǔn)媽媽的網(wǎng)友“愛上飛鳥的魚521”決定引產(chǎn),因為腹中的胎兒是唇裂。
請看《中國日報》相關(guān)新聞報道:A woman tagged "Bird Loving Fish 521" who posted a diary of her abortion online has been strongly condemned by netizens for terminating the six-month pregnancy.
After consulting with her husband and parents, Fish decided to have an abortion after discovering through an ultra sound that the fetus had a harelip.
不管相關(guān)的八卦,不談就此引發(fā)的道德爭議,單看單詞本身,“唇裂”很簡單——harelip。Harelip(唇裂)是一種先天性疾病,指嬰兒出生時上嘴唇有一個裂隙畸形,形同兔唇,故得名harelip(兔唇,唇裂)。在中國,“唇裂”亦俗稱“豁嘴”,新生兒中發(fā)生率約為1:1000。
