Boy With 34 Fingers And Toes Sets Guinness World Record
A boy from the Bareilly district of India has set a new Guinness World Record for the greatest number of fingers and toes on one human body. The boy, named Akshat, is barely one year old and has a total of 34 fingers and toes.
Akshat’s mother, Amrita Saxena, was shocked at the revelation that was explained to her by a family friend who researched it on the Internet.
Said Saxena, “He (family friend) read on the Internet about the baby born in China with 31 fingers. Then he said that my boy has broken the record of having 34 fingers. At first, I was not convinced at all. It was hard to believe that my son has broken the record. But later, he, along with my husband and my younger sister, registered the data in the Internet. Then I was asked to submit certain documents after which his name was in the Guinness World Records.”
According to doctors caring for the Guinness Record-setting boy, he has been diagnosed with the rare phenomenon of polydactyly. Dr. Parul Gupta commented on the abnormality:
“The person who is diagnosed with it is polydactylic. It is due to certain defects in the bone development of the uterus. The reason behind this defect can be either developmental congenital formation or chromosomal anomalies, which is due to maternal infection or drugs.”
Polydactyly may also be referred to as hyperdactyly; it is a congenital physical deformity that dogs and cats are prone to as well.
Luckily for Akshat, polydactyly is completely reversible with the help of plastic surgery. Polydactyly, according to Dr. Gupta, can even “be cured normally, without an operation…when [it] is minimal.”
This is a relief for Akshat’s mother, Saxena. She desires for him to lead a normal life and does not wish for his polydactyly to mar his future in any way. Because of this, the young Guinness World Record-holder will most likely go through the necessary treatment to reduce his 34 digits to the usual 20.
