A baby was born in Egypt with his legs joined at the end – in what looks like a fish fin.

Sadly the child died a few hours later.

The boy was born to a woman in a Cesarean operation in the southern town of Qena and doctors said the upper part of his body is normal except his hands.

“The lower part of his body is joined like a fish fin. This is one of the rarest cases and is caused by genetic imbalance sue to inbreeding or drug abuse during pregnancy,” Al Wafd daily said, quoting Dr Yahya Ahmed, who performed the surgery.
