Tumour In Baby’s Brain Contained Body Parts And A Foot
by Anorak | 18th, December 2008
DR. Paul Grabb is operating on three-day-old Sam Esquibel at Memorial Hospital for Children.
An MRI scan suggests a microscopic tumor on the newborn’s brain.
The skull if opened and Dr Grabb (indeed) pulls out a baby’s foot and assorted body parts. Says he:
“It looked like the breach delivery of a baby, coming out of the brain. To find a perfectly formed structure (like this) is extremely unique, unusual, borderline unheard of.”
Sam’s parents, Tiffnie and Manuel Esquibel, are happy to have their son home.
“You’d never know if he didn’t have a scar there,” says Tiffnie Esquibel, pulling a sock onto her son’s head.
