Sambalpur: The Veer Surendra Sai Institute of Medical Sciences and Research (VIMSAR) at Burla on Wednesday witnessed extremely rare deliveries at its Obstetrics and Gynecology department as a woman here gave birth to four babies-one male and others female.

Doctors say such delivery is a complicated process and extremely rare- one in five crore.

According to hospital sources, the woman identified as Kuni Suna of Banjipali village in Sonepur district was admitted to VIMSAR on Monday after she complained of labour pain.

On Wednesday, she gave birth to two baby girls at 2 PM, another baby girl at 2.02 PM and a baby boy at 2.04 PM. Doctors delivered the babies through cesarian section which took quite more time than other deliveries.

Though the condition of the newborns is stable, they have been admitted to the Special Newborn Care Unit (SNCU) of the hospital due to being underweight. The mother is stable and is under strict medical supervision, hospital sources said.
