A 101-year-old Chinese woman who grew a devil-like horn from her forehead

has confirmed that shes now growing a matching one on the other side of her
head and says that shes looking forward to it.

Zhang Ruifang first noticed the horn on the left side of her forehead developing
in 2009 and its now around 6cm long. And she says that doctors have now
confirmed earlier suspicions that shes now developing a similar growth on the
right side of her forehead. Zhang says shes turned down offers to have them
removed because shes never had so many well-wishers and visitors at her
home in Linlou, eastern China.
At first it was a nuisance sleeping and so on, but now I get people visiting me all
the time bringing me food and gifts and asking to take my picture. I had some
doctors who said they would cut it off for free but I told them no. In fact Im
quite looking forward to when the matching one has grown a bit, she
explained. Youngest son Zhang Guozheng, 60, said he and his five brothers have
given up trying to persuade their mother to have them removed. He said: She is
on her own a lot of time and we didnt pay much attention to it until too late
and by then she seemed to be quite attached to leaving them there.
The growths are likely to be cutaneous horns growths made of keratin, the
same substance that makes up fingernails. Although most cutaneous horns are
only a few millimeters in length, some can extend a number of inches from the
skin.
