We recently saw the case of an Indian girl with extra limbs, now this is a Chinese girl that has a growing arm on her back:

A GIRL in China is scheduled to undergo a lengthy four-stage operation to remove a "spare" arm growing from her back. Ren Xin, 11, will have the extra limb removed by surgeons in Beijing next week. Chinese media has reportedly quoted doctors as saying that there had been less than 20 cases of similar conditions reported around the nation. But in a similar case earlier this month, doctors in India successfully removed four "extra" limbs from two-year-old Lakshmi, making headlines worldwide. |
I find it interesting that they Chinese say there have been less than 20 cases nation wide. That still seems a little high to me. Twenty people grew extra limbs? Sounds like genetic defect gone crazy to me.
