Suze Lopez holds her baby boy on her lap and marvels at the remarkable way he came into the world. Before little Ryu was born, he developed outside his mom's womb, hidden by a basketball-sized ovarian cyst -- a dangerous situation so rare that his doctors plan to write about the case for a medical journal.

The correspondent on the story, Sharyn Alfonsi, condemned the decision in an email to 60 Minutes colleagues on Sunday evening, saying she believed it was "not an editorial decision, it is a political one."
