Selleck Syndrome
While driving today I chanced upon a news segment on a local radio station that was reporting a strange malady of a lady in England. Since birth she has had abnormal growth of the tissue in her lower extremities. The correct term for the condition is Proteus Syndrome; but it was mentioned that this particular variant of it may be called Sellars Syndrome, after Mandy Sellars who is the afflicted individual in this case. While not poking fun at the woman’s unfortunate circumstance, I wondered if another condition could be brought into existence.
It could be called Selleck’s Syndrome, and I’m sure men would be much more excited to find they had this rather adonic pathology.
