Doctors remove 40-pound, malignant tumor from a woman
The tumor was so big it was half the size of its victim!German doctors say they have successfully removed an 40-pound malignant bone tumor from a Saudi Arabian woman.
Berlin surgeon Heinz Zurbruegg says the 35-year-old had only a few weeks to live when she arrived in Germany for care in September. But he says that after five operations no traces remain of the huge tumor that once ballooned from her pelvis.
It accounted for about a third of her then total body weight of around 120 pounds.
Surgeons say the woman, who now weighs 82 pounds, is well enough to return home.
If follow-up exams show no sign of any tumor, the next step will be to reconstruct the partially removed pelvis and give her an artificial hip.

Embarrassed by Skid Marks? Not Anymore!
Rob Libfeld, a medical student at the University of Massachusetts, invented these durable boxers, after noting how embarrassed patients get during long hospital stays when their skivvies turns foul.Libfeld says, "The main problem is all-white underwear. Let's face it, the stains really stand out."
Libfeld's solution is really quite elegant, if not low-tech. He's designed two-toned undies that are yellow in front, brown in back, so if you have an accident, it won't stand out, and you won't feel as bad.
While this invention might not land this med student a plumb job at the Mayo Clinic, it's one way for any doctor or hospital visitor to show some bedside humor. "Also," he says, "It's a great Father's Day gift."
And at $12.99, it'll save you a ton of embarrassment.
