Baby Born With Foot In Brain
December 20, 2008 by sean.
Colorado Springs doctor finds a small foot and intestines inside the brain of a newborn [via denverchannel.com]:
Dr. Paul Grabb, a pediatric brain surgeon, said he was surprised when he discovered a small foot growing inside the brain of 3-day-old Sam Esquibel.
“The foot literally popped out of the brain,” Grabb told TheDenverChannel Wednesday.
The appendage threatened the newborn’s life.
When Grabb performed the life-saving surgery at Memorial Hospital for Children in Colorado Springs, he was in for another surprise: he also found what appeared to be parts of an intestine in the folds of the infant’s tiny brain, in addition to another developing foot, hand and thigh.
