"A team of five experienced doctors have successfully separated the extra legs and limbs from the baby today (Thursday). He is very much safe and secure," Jamal Raza, Director, National Institute of the Child Health, Karachi said.
The operation by the doctors at the National Institute of Child Health ended successfully with the removal of the extra legs. The baby is now said to be in stable condition, Geo News reported.
Doctors examined MRI, blood tests, CT scan reports and other test and later took the decision to do surgery which lasted for eight-hours in different phases.
Raza said, "The baby, who was born in Sukkur, was brought to Karachi for treatment. The infant was born to the wife of an X-ray technician a week ago.
"It is not one baby actually. They are two, one of them is premature."
A doctor at the institute, who did not wish to be named, said the extra limbs were the result of a genetic disease which would affect only one in a million or more babies.
