Baby born inside intact amniotic sac hailed a 'medical miracle'
Online Edition
HIS hands and feet were clearly visible - but baby Silas Philips was in no rush to enter the world.
Born still inside his amniotic sac, he has since been described as a "medical miracle" by doctors, Daily Mail reported.
Silas was delivered three months premature at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in California, the report said.
And doctors performing the Caesarean section on his mother, Chelsea, were astonished to see his amniotic sac was still intact, according to the report.
Pictures show Silas curled up inside with the placenta and umbilical cord, his tiny hands and a leg clearly visible. And until the bag was broken, he was still getting oxygen through the placenta, the report said.
After taking a few seconds to snap the incredible sight in front of him, Dr Binder set to work removing Silas out of his amniotic sac and getting him breathing, according to the report.
Despite being born at just 26 weeks, Silas is doing so well that doctors hope he will go home within the next month, the report said.
