The medial 13-5 double step prism is a convex isogonal polychoron that consists of 13 tetragonal disphenoids, 26 phyllic disphenoids, and 104 irregular tetrahedra of two kinds. 2 tetragonal disphenoids, 4 phyllic disphenoids, and 16 irregular tetrahedra join at each vertex. It can be obtained as the convex hull of two orthogonal 13-5 step prisms.

This polychoron cannot be optimized using the ratio method, because the solution would yield a small 13-5 double step prism instead.
