Overview

• The condition, known as triphallia, was discovered during a dissection at the University of Birmingham Medical School.
• Only one of the man's three penises was externally visible, with the others hidden inside the scrotum.
• Triphallia is an extremely rare congenital anomaly, with the first known case documented in a newborn in 2020.
• Researchers suggest the man's hidden penises may have contributed to undiagnosed medical issues during his life.
• The discovery highlights the potential for more undiagnosed cases of polyphallia due to their concealed nature.
