History made as a nipple is discovered on a woman's foot
Quote:
A YOUNG woman has made medical history after being discovered with a third nipple on her FOOT.
Startled researchers believe the 22-year-old's case is the first of its kind.
Between one to five per cent of the population are believed to suffer from the condition, which is clinically referred to as supernumerary breast tissue.
If present, extra nipples tend to be found above the waist.
Pop star Lily Allen famously has an extra nipple on her left breast. Bond baddie Scaramanga also suffered from a similar condition.
But medical staff believe the nipple's appearance so far down the body, in this case, is a total one off.
It features in a report in scientific journal Dermatology Online.
