MUZAFFARPUR: A baby girl was born with her heart outside her chest at a private nursing home here on Wednesday, a doctor attending on her said.
Cardiologist Rajiv Kumar said, "We have kept her in the intensive care unit. The heart beats of the baby are normal."
Bibha Devi, a labourer's wife from Parihar village in Sitamarhi district, delivered the baby at the nursing home.
Arrangements were being made to send her to the All India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) in New Delhi for a follow-up medical attention, he said.
He said it was a rare case in India and perhaps the second after the one reported from the USA in 1975.
