Mexican doctors say they have removed a 15-kilogram tumor from the body of a 2-year-old child who weighed only 12 kilograms, AP reported。
Dr. Gustavo Hernandez says the child from the northern state of Durango was born with a lump that eventually covered the right side of his body from his armpit to his hip。
It took doctors 10 hours to remove the tumor on June 14.
Hernandez says the boy is recovering and doing well。
据美联社报道，墨西哥医生从一名只有12公斤重的两岁男童身上取下了一个重达15公斤的肿块。
古斯塔沃?赫南德兹医生说，该男童来自墨西哥北部的杜兰戈州。他一生下来就有肿块，且越长越大，后来覆盖了从腋窝到臀部整个身体的右半边。
6月14日，医生花了十个小时将肿块取下。
该男孩目前恢复的很好。
