Shyam Yadav, 74, who hails from a village in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, says his head was hit by something five years ago, after which a horny figure came out on his head.
Shyam Yadav said that the horny thing that came out of his head was ignored first because there was no problem.Once during a haircut, Shyam Yadav removed the horny object from the barber, after which he came out again and became even more stiff and taller, causing him to see a doctor immediately.
At Tirth Hospital in Sagar City, doctors initially performed the patient's CT scan to find out what kind of treatment was needed to cure the disease.According to doctors, the horn on the head of Shyam Yadav is made of a chemical called 'keratin' in medical terms and it is also present in nails and hair.
Neuro-surgeon Yoda pulled the horny object from Shyam's head with the help of a sterilized razor, and the patient was kept in the hospital for 10 days, during which he underwent some necessary tests to find out if he would be able to recover in the future.
The risk of the disease will not be significant. Doctors say the disease is called "sebaceous hormone", also called "devil horn", and the disease is usually rare, and no cause for the disease has been known until now. Light and sun rays can make the disease worse. The disease can be cured in a variety of ways, including radiation-assisted surgery and chemotherapy.
Shyam was injured after removing the horn from Yadav's head after which his skin was implanted and he is now fully recovered. Doctors said the case has been referred to the 'International Journal of Surgery' because such illness is rare, and the disease is a mystery.
