62-YEAR-OLD ITALIAN GIVES BIRTH TO BOY

A 62-year-old Italian gave birth to a boy Monday and named him after her dead teen-age son, her doctor announced. The Caesarean section delivery apparently made her the world's oldest woman to give birth .

Mother and child were doing well, said Dr. Severino Antinori, who delivered the baby. His Rome clinic arranged the artificial insemination of Rosanna Della Corte with her husband's sperm and a donor's egg.
