A couple from Sukkur City, Pakistan, who are cousins, gave birth to a baby with 6 legs. The baby was believed to have a parasitic twin who did not develop in the womb due to a rare genetic disorder.
A team of 5 doctors already performed an operation to remove his excess limbs. So far, he is doing good in the hospital but is still under observation. Tests like MRI, blood test , X-ray and CT scan were performed before the 8-hour operation. Due the uniqueness of the situation, it has attracted financial sponsorships from the government and other medical institutions. Imran Shaikh, the father is very grateful to those who helped in the successful operation of his baby.
