This is pretty sick. The tumor resembles a turkey without legs or wings.
I say deep-fry it.
Doctors Remove World's Largest Tumour From Patient's Womb
DOCTORS in Argentina have removed what they think is the world's largest malignant tumour from the body of a 54-year-old woman.
Weighing a shocking 23kg, the tumour had been growing inside the woman's womb for a year-and-a-half and took four hours to remove, The Daily Mail reported.
Oscar Lopez, surgical coordinator at Gandulfo hospital in Lomas de Zamora, on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, said: "I've never seen anything like it in my 34 years of medical service.
"We removed a tumour whose weight is comparable to that of a four-year-old child.
"In layman's terms, it was as if this woman had been pregnant with quintuplets."
Tumours of the type removed from the woman usually weigh no more than 3kg.
