Saving you a click: “…ultimately revealing that the man was secreting pregnancy hormones due to a tumor that had metastasized to the liver.”
It’s still a strange condition that doctors hadn’t seen previously (though it may have been a known condition generally). Unexpected and anomalous. I’m usually critical of the headlines and sensational stories but this one was pretty impressive.
Oh sorry, I’m not saying it’s not interesting. It’s definitely interesting! I just wanted to summarize the condition. :-)
