This is one huge tumor...50 pounds originally and now down to 9 pounds and more help on the way! BD
Huang Chuncai is seen on the operating table before his second operation to remove his tumors, which currently weigh around 10kg (22lbs), at a hospital in Guangzhou, southern China's Guangdong province January 7, 2008. Huang, a 32-year-old native from a remote village in China's southern province of Hunan, says he is relieved after a part of his facial tumors, which originally weighed about 23kg (50.7 lbs), was removed last year. His second operation will remove another part of the tumors, which weighs 4.5kg (9.9lbs).
Huang suffers from neurofibromatosis, which is a genetic disorder of the nervous system that primarily affects the development and growth of nerve tissues.
