'Mirror man' has a 'mirror mom'

Duan Changyuan, 43, a resident in Chongqing municipality, underwent a successful operation in a local hospital recently.

Duan's operation for gallbladder removal was normal, but doctors faced difficulties because all of his internal organs are in the opposite position. People with such a condition, who generally live healthy lives, are referred to as "mirror people" in the medical field.
