Good Day For Overgrown Limb Surgeries
First up, Huang Chunsai, a 31 year old Chinese man, is recovering after having part of his 23 kg (about 50 pounds) facial tumor removed. Before the surgery, Chunsai had trouble seeing, hearing and eating as well as living a normal life. He will have to go under the knife again to remove the other parts of this record-breaking facial growth.
Next we have another Chinese man who is the record holder for the largest hand. Recently, 24 year old Liu Hua arrived for his second surgery to reduce the size of his left thumb, index and middle finger which grew at a faster rate than the other two fingers. During the first surgery on July 20th doctors removed 5.1kg of flesh and bone in the 7-hour procedure. Hua will need to go in later for surgery on his left arm and shoulder.
