It was announced at the Hubei Maternity and Child Health Hospital in China that a Chinese woman named Wang gave birth to a healthy baby last Tuesday from a frozen fetus for 10 years, a decade after the birth of her eldest son in the same part of IVF.
The doctor who supervises the operation stated that the woman gave birth to two twin brothers, a difference of 10 years, according to the "New York Post".
The brothers were designed as a group of fetuses in 2009 using the same sperm and egg.
"From a medical perspective, Lulu and Tong Tong are twin brothers," said Dr. Xing Ji, a fertility specialist at Hubei Hospital.
Wang (41 years) tried to create a family naturally for five years before resorting to fertility treatments, where doctors planted a "group of fetuses" using the same sperm and eggs, and one of them transplanted directly into Wang and the rest of the cells were frozen.
Mrs. Wang's eldest son, Lulu, was born in June 2010, at Hubei Maternal and Child Care Hospital in central China. Her youngest son, called Tong Tong, was born on Tuesday in the same hospital.
