Does anyone know the name of the medical condition where the person only has a torso - they appear to have been cut in half just below their waist ??
I've tried googling, but it keeps bringing up all kinds of irrelevant stuff :(

Caudal regression?
I can only find limbless. You might find it in this glossary though

Sacral agenesis was the term I was trying to remember, but yogasun's answer lead me to it.
From what I can make out, sacral agenesis and caudal regression are the same thing (a.k.a. hypoplasia of the sacrum).
Cheers peeps :)
