A 3.5kg TUMOR WAS REMOVED FROM A GRANNY FROM PIROT 4 YEARS AGO

Doctors from Nis from Maxillofacial Surgery department removed a tumor from a neck weighing 3.5 kilos. Mrs. Mara Stojanovic (76) from the Pirot vicinity said that she lived with the tumor for about 10 years. She said that it didn't bother her at the start, but when it grew, she couldn't work around the house, and her movement was impaired. That is why she decided to go to the doctors.

Dr. Ivica Vuckovic, the head of the Maxillofacial Surgery, said that the operation was a great challenge because the tumor pushed the blood vessels and airways, so it was hard to separate the tumor from them, to enable the patient to survive. This is the largest tumor on the neck which was successfully removed in Serbia.

A CHINESE HAD A 65 KG TUMOR WHICH OCCURRED FROM A INGROWN HAIR 

When Roger Logan began to get on weight, his doctors thought he was only exaggerating with food. However, this 57-year-old actually had a tumor in his stomach weighing an incredible 65 kilograms.

Doctors say this benign tumor, which began to grow about 12 years ago, is probably due to the ingrown hair. However, it grew so much that it ultimately developed its own bloodstream. Logan spent the last five years in an armchair, incapable of running his antique shop or enjoying fishing.

After depression and a series of wrong diagnoses, his wife finally found a specialist in California who agreed to operate it.

Despite having only fifty percent chance of surviving, the operation was successful and he walked for the first time after many years on Thursday. Otherwise, the largest tumor ever removed was weighing as much as kilos and it was located on the back of a Chinese man.
