The oddest medical discovery you'll read today

...and perhaps ever...

quote:
A 22-year-old woman sought medical care for a lesion in the plantar region of her left foot, a well-formed nipple surrounded by areola and hair. Microscopic examination of the dermis showed hair follicles, eccrine glands, and sebaceous glands. Fat tissue was noted at the base of the lesion. Clinical and histopathologic findings were consistent with the diagnosis of supernumerary breast tissue, also known as pseudomamma. To our knowledge, this is the first report of supernumerary breast tissue on the foot.

These supernumerary breasts can pop up all over the place, including the face, back, and thigh (and foot, obviously). They can be functionally complete, and can even lactate. The authors report some weak and sometimes contradicted associations with other oddities, but no causal mechanism is known. These cases of autonomous self-organization and recruitment of organs are extremely interesting�it suggests that a breast would be a fairly easy tissue to grow in a dish.

That tops Tara Reid's frankenipple.

This is going to be a good thread.

Alright, alright I get it.

Now, I'm surprised no one clicked on the Russian Man Grows Penis on Arm link from my source page.

Posted by Frenchie on Mar-20-2007 20:50:

The title lies. He didn't grow it, they placed it there.

....... defect from birth � his penis was crooked, two-and-a-half-inches long and lacked a scrotum, the newspaper writes.

The doctors had the penis removed and attached to the man�s arm. Using his body tissue it grew to six-and-a-half inches and was sewn back on to his groin. Silicone tubes were inserted into the organ to ensure an erection was possible. Doctors also created a scrotum from the patient�s own skin and placed silicone testicles in it.
