Foot Grows in Baby's Brain

Foot Grows in Baby's Brain
Doctors Find Foot Growing in Infant's Brain, but Can't Explain Why Yet
By LAUREN COX
ABC News Medical Unit
Dec. 18, 2008

A doctor in Colorado found a surprise when removing what he thought was a benign growth from a newborn's brain. Instead of a microscopic tumor, out popped a tiny foot, partially formed hand, a thigh and another partially formed foot.


Perfectly formed foot popped out of a tumor growing in the baby's brain.

"It would be a shock to even the most experienced pathologist cutting into a tumor to see this," Dr. Paul Grabb told the ABC affiliate KMGH.

Grabb said he could not tell whether the miniature limbs were from a benign stem cell tumor called a teratoma or the remnants of an identical twin that did not split off and survive, a condition called fetus in fetu.

"It looked like the breach delivery of a baby, coming out of the brain," Grabb told The Associated Press. "To find a perfectly formed structure is extremely unique, unusual, borderline unheard of."

Because one foot was completely formed and the other was only "partially" formed

Haha, thats true, but it wouldn't be correct to say "two feet" if one wasn't completely formed

Good journalist are trained to give details like that
even when it doesn't seem necessary

The other brain is inside this kids brain someplace.

That could be strange.

You wish for that.

You all realize we're talking about an infant? A child?
