The newspaper said that the infant was born in the Caesarean Maternity Department of Nuwevo Leon Hospital, her parents were in good health and in late twenties, doctors discovered a 5. 7 cm (2. 2 -inch) tail (2.
2 inches) was “soft” and “covered with skin and soft hair” and has a tip. “tapered”.
The newspaper pointed out that the details of the case were published in the Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, and doctors, led by Dr. Josue Reda, believed that the case is the first to be recorded in Mexico.
The tail after its eradication
The paramedics said that the girl was born completely and did not make complications during pregnancy, her parents had already a good healthy son, but shortly after her birth, doctors discovered the tail quickly, as they said that she was prominent at the end of the guilt and her base to the left a little, and its diameter ranges between 3 mm and 5 mm, narrowed towards the “pointed” end.
“The tail was soft and covered with skin and soft hair, and it could be moved without any pain, but it did not show any automatic movement, and the girl cried when a needle was closed to the structure.
The newspaper added, the newborn was in good health, as brain, heart, hearing and urine tests showed natural results, but human tails are divided into two Psudotails categories are tail -like increases but they are caused by spine problems or tumors.
Tail
At the same time, the real “tails” contain muscles, blood vessels and nerves, but do not contain bones – similar to those in animals.
The surveying operations revealed that the tail was not the result of a problem in the spine, a condition that could cause the appearance of a tail -like growth at the bottom of the spine.
Doctors were discharged from the hospital and re -evaluated it when she was two months old, she had a healthy weight and length and her tail grew.
The surgeons removed the tail in a simple surgery under local anesthesia.
The girl was discharged from the hospital on the same day and did not suffer from any complications, and the additional analysis of the tail was revealed that it contains soft tissues, arteries, veins and neurological packages. The longest is 20 cm (7. 9 inches).
Often in boys, one in every 17 children with tails suffer from brain or skull growth disorders, they are not generally monitored except after the child’s birth and doctors do not know their causes – with only one example of them inherited in families.
The newspaper said that our human ancestors and monkeys did not inherit these tails when we moved away from monkeys about 20 million years ago..
