Black Doctor Removed a Baby, Operated on Her, and Then Safely Returned Her to Her Mother's Womb
In 2016, Dr.
Oluyinka O. Olutoye (who is from Nigeria) made history after he successfully co-led a team of 21 doctors to perform a very unusual surgery on a 23-week old baby at a Texas hospital. During the surgery, he removed the fetus from the mother's womb, operated to remove a large tumor that was growing on the fetus' tailbone, and then returned the fetus back to the mother’s womb unharmed.
When the mother gave birth after 9 months, the baby was born normal and healthy.
The operation gave Dr.
Olutoye a stellar reputation that has validated him as as world-renowned pediatric and fetal surgeon with specialized clinical expertise in fetal and neonatal surgery. He is currently the appointed Surgeon-In-Chief at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, leading one of the largest children’s hospital surgery departments in the world.
