A 29-day-old baby who was suffering from a rare genetic disorder having 20 tumors of various sizes formed in his heart got a new lease of life after treatment by doctors at Wadia hospital. Though the tumor is non-cancerous, the doctors used a cancer drug to treat the baby which proved to be very effective.
The Karjat-based Kandvi family was happy after Kavita delivered a baby boy. But the baby`s heartbeats were unusual and he was taken to a private hospital in Badlapur.
