Besides the dual stream confirmation in Discovery, I believe it's in Enterprise that we first learn that Klingons have two of every organ.
And I believe I recall a throw away line of confirmation (of the double organs) in Picard.
I'm honestly surprised if Lower Decks hasn't dealt with the topic yet.
Lower Decks did, in one of the earlier seasons. The episode with the visiting drill instructor Tendi has a test where she has to give a Klingon an honorable death. She fails and her holo-assistants also fail to kill the Klingon because of all the backup organs
Awesome. I figured Lower Decks would be all over this. Their creative team has amazingly strong knowledge of Trek lore.
The two of evey internal organ is accepted, I think we're specifically discussing two penises
The Skin is an organ, not just an organ but the largest organ.
That explains the facial folds.
And also why mother Klingons carry their young by gripping the loose skin on the back of their necks... no wait, I'm confusing Klingons with something else, aren't I?
Not canon, but there was a fan theory that the changes occurred after the tribbles were transported aboard the Klingon ship in TOS.
They retconned the TOS Klingons in Enterprise
