Photos:Baby boy born with 4 legs and two genitals undergoes crucial operation.

A baby boy who was born with four legs and two male s*x organs at a hospital in India has had his extra appendages removed.
The boy, described by his mother at ‘God’s gift to us’, has not yet been named but is recovering well from his operation.

He was born in January to parents Lalitamma and Chennabasava who are at his bedside in India.Initially they were reluctant to take him to another hospital because they are poor and could not afford medical treatment.

However, after seeking advice and reassurance from her family she and her son went to a specialist facility in Ballari in the western Karnataka state.
She said she was prepared to raise her son the way he was. However, she said: ‘My first son, born three years ago, is healthy. We are poor and cannot afford expensive treatment.’
Dr Virupaksha, who helped deliver the baby, told the Times of India: 'I referred the family to Vijayanagara Institute of Medical Sciences (VIMS).

‘I spoke to the surgeons there on Sunday, and they told me that the baby was being kept under observation. I hope the baby becomes normal.’

Lalitamma added: 'The doctors and members of my family advised me to take the baby to VIMS for for advanced treatment. Now, I am hoping he becomes normal.’

Dr Divakar Gaddi, at VIMS, said: ‘A team of surgeons is looking into the baby’s condition. It is a very challenging case for us.’
