A healthy baby girl was born after her mother was declared brain-dead by doctors. The baby was kept alive in her mother’s womb for 117 days, believed to be the longest artificially suspended pregnancy in a brain-dead mother. Czech doctors placed the 27-year old unnamed woman on artificial life support, and regularly moved her legs (to simulate walking) to help with the child’s growth.
