بھارتی عورت کی بچہ دانی سے دنیا کا سب سے بڑا ٹیومر ہٹا دیا گیا
The world's biggest uterine tumour, weighing 30lbs and measuring 21 inches in diameter, has been removed from an Indian woman.
Doctors in the southern city of Chennai performed a complex operation on a 52-year-old woman identified as Latha.
She had been suffering breathlessness and fatigue for several years but had no idea the giant tumour - similar to the size of a watermelon - was growing inside her.
A month ago, the 52-year-old arrivied at Chennai's Kumaran Hospital, bleeding heavily.
Doctors
ran tests and discovered she was severely anaemic, before detecting a
'large fibroid' growth attached to the outer surface of the uterus,
which was putting pressure on her body and causing her symptoms.
