Shocking Photo Of A New Born Baby Born With Tail In China

A baby born with a tail has got the
tail removed by doctors on Thursday.
The 11-month-old baby Yangyang
(pseudonym) was born with a tail in
Yibin, southwest China’s Sichuan
province.
Yangyang’s mother had not been
told about any abnormality during
prenatal examinations at a local
hospital and was startled to find
the baby with a tail upon birth.
Yangyang was diagnosed, after
birth, with neural tube defects
which has an incidence rate of
2‰~3‰.
Doctors say the cause of the disease
could have been that Yangyang’s
mother didn’t take folic acid
supplements during pregnancy.
