A baby is set to undergo a number of corrective surgeries after he was born with 15 fingers and 16 toes.

The eight-month-old boy has an astonishing 31 digits - but no thumbs on either palm .
He was born to migrant workers in the the village of Zhongping in China's southern Hunan province.

His mother has one extra finger on each hand, which may explain how he inherited the condition, known as polydactyly.
