A miracle baby is expected to undergo surgery to remove the extra set of fingers and toes which he has got by birth.

It has been reported that the eight month old baby’s mother is also having one extra fingers in her each hand, which clears the fact that the baby has inherited this condition from his mother.

However, doctors say that the condition, which is called as Polydactyly, is very rare and occurs with 1 in thousands.

After hearing about the boy’s condition, the No 6 hospital of Ningbo City offered to reduce the family’s medical costs – which is estimated to be around $80,000.
