A newborn girl received India's first successful limb-salvage treatment for Infantile Fibrosarcoma (IFS).
Doctors at HCG Cancer Centre in Bengaluru performed the surgery after other hospitals recommended amputation.
The community raised nearly Rs 30 lakh to fund the treatment.
The baby is now cancer-free and has full use of her right arm.
The procedure involved genomic testing, 3D surgical planning, and microvascular reconstruction.
