Mr and Mrs Salian from Mira Road welcomed their first child into the world, however, their happiness faded when they learnt that the newborn had a congenital condition called anorectal malformation (ARM). It refers to the absence of an anal opening in the infant`s body. The baby had other problems like Hypospadias which implies that the penis was bent and the opening of the urinary hole was not at the place.
Despite these challenges, the baby is now successfully reaching developmental milestones appropriate for his age with the help of Mumbai-based doctors. The infant underwent a series of five surgeries such as colostomy, anal reconstruction and colostomy closure to address issues of ARM, hypospadias and tongue tie.
