Girl born with heart outside chest (4)

(ANSA) - Turin, May 27 - A baby girl was born at Turin's Città della Salute Hospital with her heart outside her chest, a rare congenital deformity known as ectopia cordis, on Wednesday.
    The heart and part of the liver, also outside the chest because the breast bone was missing, were protected by stitching the skin, sources said.
    Another operation removed a tumour from her oral cavity that would have prevented her from breathing.
