3. The 69-year-old woman who had a horn growing from her forhead for two decades before having it removed.
One of the most spectacular cases of human cutaneous horns involves the 69-year-old woman in the photos.Though details on her case are sketchy, it is known that she tolerated the 17 cm long horn growing from the center of her forehead for approximately 20 years before having it surgically removed. Over a period of two decades, the horn grew asymmetrically, eventually coiling around in the fashion of a ram’s horn. Once the 17 cm horn was removed, the woman only needed a bit of light makeup to appear normal.
