Baby Born in India with Heart Outside of Chest
A 4 day old baby was brought by his parents by train to a hospital in New Delhi, from a remote region near India's border with Nepal, with a severe blood infection and a hole in his heart. In addition, doctors were shocked to learn that the baby had been born with his heart protruding from his chest cavity.
Only 5 to 8 such cases occur in every one million live births. The infant will undergo emergency surgery, and receive expert medical treatment, in an effort to save his life. (CNN)
