Doctors successfully removed an 18.5-kg fibroid, approximately the weight of five newborns, from a 56-year-old woman's uterus at Delhi's BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital. The patient had been suffering due to it for six years. "The benign tumour had severely distorted her anatomy, compressing the bladder, intestine and ureter," Dr Dinesh Kansal, who led the team that performed the surgery, said.
