Doctors remove biggest tumour they’ve ever seen

Medics at a Delhi hospital intervened after the patient Mr Gurmeet, from Jalandhar, had lived with the debilitating cancer growth for seven years. 

Mr Gurmeet, who only weights 37kg, had been bedridden for the past three years, weighed down by the giant 55kg bone tumour.

Doctors were also forced to amputate his right leg and a portion of the pelvic bone during the complex and lengthy operation last week.

The 26-year-old cancer patient had to quit his university studies when his thigh first became abnormally inflammed in 2008.

Doctors refused to properly treat the bizarre tumour which continued to grow over the years

The patient said: “I have not been able to move for the last three to four years. 

"My leg kept swelling, it did not fit into any clothes properly. 

"I could barely sit let alone stand, I could only rest on my back on the bed and could not even roll over and change sides.

“My right leg is gone, and I do not know how if the cancer has spread, but the weight of my dragging leg is gone. 

"I am able to stand on a walker, hopefully I will be able to walk with a prosthetic."
