cnd Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 A ONE-year-old boy in India has broken a world record after being born with 34 fingers and toes. Akshat Saxena had seven fingers on each hand and ten toes on each foot, according to a spokesman for Guinness World Records. The child, from Uttar Pradesh in northern India, has since had a series of surgeries to amputate the excess digits. Akshat was born last year without thumbs so doctors are working to reconstruct these out of the fingers they have removed. His mother Amrita Saxena said: "I was so happy to see my baby as it was our first child. "But later, when I saw his fingers, I was shocked and surprised." The condition is known as polydactyly, a genetic disorder which can be inherited and gives rise to excess digits. The record was previously held by a six-year-old boy in China who had 15 fingers and 16 toes. The child, who his family refused to name, also had surgery to remove his extra digits. He now has ten fingers and ten toes following a six-and-a-half hour operation at a hospital in Shenyang, Liaoning last March.

A mutation No ish sherlock, no one says it's normal as a matter of fact it catches media attention because it's abnormal but the parents still love their children and make the best of the situation. Alot of times they can't afford surgery for their child without assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
