Huang Yijun, aged 92, is from southern China and she recently made news after delivering a baby known as a lithopedion, aka ‘Stone Baby’. The old woman had been carrying the baby for over half a century! It's a ridiculous.she said that she didn’t have enough money to have her fetus removed after doctors told her it had died inside her in 1948.
Lithopedion is a very rare medical phenomenon. It occurs when a pregnancy fails and the
fetus actually calcifies while still in the mother’s body.If no complications occur, believe it or not, the mother can basically just go on with her life.
According to the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, only 290 cases of lithopedions have ever been documented by medical literature.
