LARGEST TUMER>
Reconstructive Surgery
A world-record tumor?
Tampa plastic surgeon C. N. Guerriere, M.D., P.A., didn't consider the tumor he was removing from the neck of a 66 year-old West Virginia woman might earn them both a spot in the Guiness Book of World Records.
He just knew it had kept her house bound for 22 years, and that it was so large that it obstructed even MRI scans
When the growth weighed in at eight kilos (17.6 pounds), it turned out to be in the running for a spot in the record book.
The woman was in intensive care for three days following surgery and was home in less than ten days, she even went shopping for the first time in more than two decades.
