Chinese surgeons recently successfully removed a malignant tumor the size of two footballs from a female patient's liver.
The huge tumor weighed 12.5 kilograms, making the 41-year-old patient appear to be pregnant, hospital staff said.
The six-hour operation was done at the Tianjin No. 3 Central Hospital in north China.
Doctors said the patient was diagnosed with a rectal tumor 15 years ago. The cancer then spread to her liver.
She is in stable condition, according to hospital reports.
