STOMPer Geomancer came across an article in a local tabloid,
where a man's breasts had grown excessively large. Doctors are
stumped by the case, and one doctor even thought that the man could
have eaten chicken meat containing female hormones.
The STOMPer said in an email to us on Apr 9:
"On April 9, the local tabloid Xin Ming Ri Bao carried a report on
a Chinese man whose breasts had grown excessively large.
"The cow hand named Guo Feng, 53, after seeing several doctors in
his hometown, decided to seek medical advice from a hospital in
Beijing.
"He said that about 10 years ago, he noticed that his breasts
suddenly became enlarged until they became as big as a
watermelon.
"A doctor from Jinan Chest Hospital told him that she had never
seen a similar case in her medical practice of 30 years. She
suspected that he might have eaten the wrong food or food
containing impurities.
"However blood tests and x-ray examination revealed that the
patient had excess animal fat.
"A local doctor told the Xin Ming reporter that the Chinese man
could have consumed stewed chicken breast containing female
hormones and that resulted in his breasts ballooning beyond
control."
