In Magdeburg in eastern Germany, a team from the University Women’s Hospital removed a 32 kg benign tumor from the ovaries of a young woman.
Despite adhesions to the intestines, the operation went without complications and the 24-year-old left the clinic after a week, the clinic announced on Facebook. The tumor is a cystadenoma, not cancer.
Chief physician Atanas Ignatov said after the operation:
“A tumor of this size is extremely unusual because women usually seek medical attention at an early stage. The patient was afraid of the operation and therefore suppressed the tumor, but I want to emphasize: affected women should not be afraid.
It was only when health problems such as shortness of breath, heaviness and weight loss arose that the woman finally sought help.
