    Today a baby was born in Al Kasr Al Ainy Hospital in Cairo with 4 arms and 4 legs

    Mostly they were twins who failed to detach

    I think they didnt do any anomaly scans before delivery , the baby has low chance to survive

    I will let you see the photo here

    and the baby is going to survive?

    as that lately many babies are born with congenital malformations very marked.
