A seven-year-old boy, who was born with eight limbs over his chest area, has recently been successfully operated on at the Fortis Hospital, Bangalore in order to help him lead a normal life.

The boy Deepak Paswan had suffered years of discomfort and social stigma due to a parasitic twin conjoined to his abdomen [between the chest and the hips that contains the stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and spleen.] , which meant he had four legs and four arms but one head.
