Lithopedion (Stone Baby) Born By 92 Year Old Woman

The Chinese woman above was delivered of a Stone Baby (Lithopedion). This is a very rare medical case which occurs when a pregnancy fails, and the feotus calcifies in the mother's womb.

Medically, the feotus would have gotten to an advanced stage before it's death, hence it will be too large to be absorbed by the body. The remains of the child or it’s amniotic sac will slowly calcify, hence turning to stone as a way to protect the woman’s body from infection as a result of the decomposing tissue.

If no complications occur, then the woman continues life as if nothing happened!


Huang Yijun experienced same, she said when her pregnancy failed in 1948, she didn't have money to have the feotus removed, so she ignored the doctors and went about her business.

The Stone baby is 60 years old!

Only  290 cases of Lithopedions have ever occured according to the Journal of  the Royal Society of Medicine.
