Surgery success on girl with 8 limbs !

Doctors operated on Lakshmi, the two-year-old girl born with eight limbs. "The surgery has been successful and Lakshmi is stable," said a doctor at the Sparsh Hospital. The little girl, is now recovering after a team of more than 30 surgeons in Bangalore worked to remove the twin's limbs and organs and separate the fused spines. Lakshmi was born joined to a "parasitic twin" that stopped developing in the mother's womb. The surviving foetus absorbed the limbs, kidneys and other body parts of the undeveloped foetus.
