A six-year-old girl, a native of Chad in Africa, whose food pipe got damaged after she accidentally consumed an acidic floor cleaning liquid, has got a new lease of life following successful treatment at a private hospital in the city.
The girl Farah (name changed) had been feeding from an external tube inserted in her abdomen for the past two years as her food pipe was completely burnt due to the accident. She was recently referred to Fortis Bannerghatta Road and has been successfully treated.
