Foot in the brain?? waTT!!

Earlier this week, in Colorado, one of the strangest cases in medical history occurred. A fully grown foot was found in the brain of a 3 year old baby infant. Dr. Paul Grabb, said he was certainly surprised when he found a full grown baby foot inside the brain of young Sam Esquibel.

"The foot literally popped out of the brain," Grabb said. This appendage obviously threatened young Sam's life. "I've never seen anything like it before," Grabb said. "It looked like the breach delivery of a baby coming out of the brain."

Not only a foot was found in the brain, though. A still developing thigh, hand and another foot, along with parts of an intestine in the folds of the infant's tiny brain.

The reason for the strange growth was not clear at first. It was thought to be a teratome, a brain tumor made of tissue such as muscle, teeth or hair. Or a fetus in fetu, which is a abnormality in which a fetal twin begins to form within the other.

After undergoing extensive surgery, the tumor foot, was removed. However, Grabb stated that the tumor could potentially come back, so he'll need to be until careful watch, for years to come. Other then that, little Sam is doing well, and the mother calls him a "miracle child!".
