The new-born baby with her external liver and intestines before the operation

A hospital in southern Dong Nai Province Sunday performed a successful operation on a baby born Friday with her liver and intestines outside her body.

Her liver and intestines had developed abnormally outside her abdominal cavity and there were six fingers on each hand.

The operation team returned the liver and gut back to the baby’s abdomen and amputated the two extra fingers.

It was a rare congenital malformation case, local doctors said.
