COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- A Colorado Springs family is part of one of the strangest cases in medical history.

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.

There's a picture.

That is so odd. I'm glad that the infant's doing okay so far. That photo looks pretty disturbing, with all the red stuff surrounding the foot.

**virus003** · 12-17-2008, 05:10 PM

Oh god, I looked at the foot, it's weird and gross at the same time.

**nuclearsamurai** · 12-17-2008, 05:12 PM

It was gross, but I couldn't help but stare for some odd reason.

**dore** · 12-17-2008, 05:19 PM

all I could say was WHAT

**Heartseeker7** · 12-17-2008, 05:29 PM

Let me go pick up my jaw.
Thats crazy.
There is another hand and intestines in there too apparently.

Who needs stem cell research or cloning when you can grow a spare kidney in your offspring's brain.

Pregnancy: The solution to everything. (I'm looking at you, 17-year-old minority girls.)

I'm not quite understanding how this is physically possible. Maybe it's cuz I was too lazy to read intensely but that's so bizzare.

W.......T...........F?!? XD

**foilman8805** · 12-17-2008, 05:41 PM

O_O

No seriously.

**Kairon** · 12-17-2008, 05:52 PM

That's... just... um... what?

tangomango · 12-17-2008, 05:52 PM

That picture was really freaky...

The red stuff is, you know, brains.

Stay away from Sherri, you pervert. D:<

Back on topic: Half the comments on the article were people praying for the family and whatnot, and the other half were speculations on exactly what the hell happened in utero to cause this.

At first I thought a few stem cells got lost, but then I read the post about the "vanishing twin" thing and I was really freaked out.

In any case, this is another reason I'm glad I didn't pursue a career as an EMT.

It's not that strange - there are a variety of ways this could happen. Pieces of a dead twin in the uterus, mangled DNA, mutations...

Like the article said, the really STRANGE thing about it is the fact that the foot was so perfectly formed. Misplaced body parts are not unusual.

**Adamaja456** · 12-17-2008, 06:30 PM

i think its quite interesting actually.

very weird picture but it intrigues me

I agree. And its really not as freaky as most make it out to be. And as Chrissi said, just the foot's perfection is the odd part... The fact that the foot is there isn't too strange.
