Sain Mumtaz has has the biggest head in the world according to the
Guinness Book Of World Records.– but what is causing its extreme growth
and how Sain might be treated is a total mystery.
Mumtaz is terribly disfigured and lives around 100km from the Pakistani city of Lahore on the road to the town of Narowal.
Sain was told as a child that he suffered from Proteus syndrome the same condition as Joseph Merrick, the original Elephant Man.
But Proteus is renowned for affecting only one side of the body, to the
trained eye the symmetrical deformity of Sain’s face and skull suggests
he is probably suffering from a different condition.
