Rare one-eyed quadruped born in hospital Veldhoven

A rare set of quadruplets born in Veldhoven hospital have been making progress in their recovery. The four identical boys were born at 29 weeks gestation and are currently staying in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. The hospital had to specially adapt its operating room to accommodate the birth of four babies simultaneously, requiring a large medical team to work together. The parents, who are from Gambia and now live in the Netherlands, already have a daughter from Italy. This is the first time a quadruplet has been born in the family. According to estimates, the chance of having quadruplets is about 1 in 500,000 pregnancies worldwide, while identical quadruplets occur approximately once in every 11 million pregnancies.
