Woman born with 3 finger regrows a phantom-hand with 5 fingers!

Woman born with only 3 fingers regrows a full phantom-hand after amputation due to car accident! Neuroscientists say the case powerfully demonstrates the interaction of nature and nurture in creating and sustaining body image.
A study published in the journal Neurocase: The Neural Basis of Cognition reports on a curious case about a woman who, following the amputation of her right hand, sprouted a phantom hand that contained five digits, including a new thumb and finger that had never been there in the first place.
Born without a thumb and finger on her right hand, the 57-year-old woman, nicknamed RN in the case study, had her whole hand amputated following a car accident at the age of 18. As generally happens to people following an amputation, RN experienced the sensation of a phantom limb — the vivid impression that the limb was still there. In some case, the phantom limb hurts as well.
“But here’s the interesting thing,” said Paul McGeoch at the University of California, San Diego. “Her phantom hand didn’t have three digits, it had five.”
