Australia: Successful surgery on the fetus. In the photo: The fetus in the 14th week. A year and a half after surgery while still in the womb, baby Ella Turner in Australia developed normally and started taking the first steps.

Baby Ella in Launceston (Tasmania state, Australia), was operated on as a fetus after the doctor discovered that she had a rare condition that could lead to losing her foot. Currently, baby Ella is 14 months old. I develop normally and am practicing.

Surgeons in Melbourne (Australia) are very excited about the success of the surgery.

Dr. Andrew Edwards said the success of Ella surgery has attracted the attention of the whole world.

To date, there are only a few surgeries on the fetus in the world.This type of surgery is very difficult, only a few surgeons in the world dare to perform.This is a dangerous surgery because it can cause premature birth.The United States leads the way in making this method with open abdomen and uterus wide like caesarean section.

According to Dr. Edwards, Ella's situation is really great because in this case, there are a lot of consequences that can happen from the fact that the foot is untouched so that the foot can function normally.
