Baby With Four Extra Legs

In karachi on 23 july a baby boy born with four extra legs at a private hospital on Friday underwent a corrective surgery at the National Institute of Child Health.


Doctors had to operate upon the baby a few hours after his birth to remove the additional limbs.

During the surgery his four extra legs that he had probably taken from a conjoined twin who could not develop were removed and his intestines placed back into the abdomen.

The child is now admitted to the ICU, where his condition is still critical.

A woman gave birth to a baby boy with six legs at a maternity home in a Shah Faisal Colony locality.
