Liu Huichang, suffering from local gigantism of both the right leg and foot, receives treatment at a hospital in Southwest China’s Chongqing municipality, April 27, 2015. As a child, the 21-year-old discovered his foot was larger than normal but his family had no money to cover medical expenses, delaying treatment until now. Liu will undergo at least three surgeries to cure the oversized foot, which is about 40 centimeters long. Local gigantism, which is more common in fingers and toes and termed macrodactyly, can be a result of numerous causes. (Photo: China News Service/Chen Chao)
