Against all the odds, Czech doctors delivered a baby girl 117 days after the mother was brought brain-dead. The doctors said that the infant was kept alive in the womb, a process fraught with complications, which could be the record for the longest artificially sustained pregnancy in a brain-dead mother. The mother was on artificial life support to keep the pregnancy going and even regularly moved her legs to help the child grow.
