A little boy stunned medics after being born with 34 fingers and ...
toes,
Akshat Saxena had seven fingers on each hand and ten toes on each foot —
but no thumbs. Mum Amrita 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.” She said: “He read on the internet about the baby born
in China. More photos after the break
Then he said that my boy has broken the record of having 34
fingers. “At first I was not convinced at all. It was hard to believe
that my son has broken the record. “But later, he along with my husband
and younger sister registered the data on the internet.” The previous
record holder was a six-year-old boy in China who had 15 fingers and 16
toes amounting to 31 digits. Akshat, from Uttar Pradesh, northern India,
has since had surgery to remove the excess digits which supposedly
results from a condition known as polydactyl as and doctors are trying
to construct thumbs from thel fingers they amputated.
