A man in Chengdu, China had a giant tumor removed form his abdomen. The man identified as Zhang from Leshan city, Sichuan Province has lived with the giant tumor in his abdomen for nearly ten years. See more pictures below !
Last Friday, the doctors at a Chengdu hospital performed a 6 hour surgery on the man. It was a difficult operation because the tumor weighed around 15 kg, and also caused distortion to other organs, which were subject to other injuries. But the doctors managed to remove the tumor successfully.
Despite the tumor making him look pregnant and causing serious trouble to his health, Zhang didn’t do anything about it until recently because of his financial predicament.
Zhang’s sister told Chengdu Business Daily that she could only manage to collect the 80,000 yuan (12,300 US dollars) operation fee after borrowing money from relatives. She is still asking for donations for post-surgery treatment.
