In serious need of surgery… This man has a facial tumor that covers the majority of his face. This is some sick shit.

Video of a 16 pound facial tumor

Brain surgery video. No oops in this one, well at least I didn’t hear it in English. The surgeons and operating room staff are not speaking English but the video speaks for itself. It is a very graphic surgery to remove a brain tumor. This video is just sick, incredible and amazing, pulsating brain and all. I must admire the surgeons involved considering I cringe removing a splinter from someones finger. Hard to believe a video so gross looking can be so interesting at the same time. You look away, then you gotta look, look away, then look again…

poor Dede, talk about not catching a break in life. Dede has an extremely rare condition that causes sick looking giant woody type warts to grow all over his limbs. The grotesque warts make him look like a tree because his body looks like bark, he is now called the treeman.

Here is Dede the treeman trying to light a cigarette around the strange and bizarre deformations on his hands

Dede is now undergoing surgery to remove the growths, so far 4 lbs. of ugly warts have been surgically cut away and Dede can almost use his hands and feet

From the telegraph news site and discovery channel The images, taken in an Indonesian hospital, show him using a mobile phone and eating and drinking unaided. Around 4lbs of warty horns have been removed from his limbs, allowing him to use his hands and walk without pain for the first time in 20 years.

I must admit that stuff like this :: giant tumors that are allowed to grow unchecked, just boggle my mind. Yes, I feel incredibly sorry for an individual who has a facial tumor the size of a basketball, but WTF? Why are they waiting until they can no longer breathe to get medical attention? This ma is only now seeking medical help… after 35 years of tumor growth! The man is 50 years old or so and the giant facial tumor started as a birthmark that grew after puberty.

here’s the story from Discovery

For the past 35 years, 51 year-old Jose Mestre, from Lisbon, has been losing his face to a massive growth, distorting it out of all recognition – The giant tumor facial deformation is still growing.

The tumour on Jose’s face is a vascular malformation, a collection of blood vessels that have expanded, producing a raised red area on the skin. Jose was born with a strawberry-coloured birth mark on his upper lip; at puberty his face started growing, eventually smothering his lips, nose and one of his eyes. It’s now about 33cm long and weighs around 3kg.

Surrounded by a loving family, it seems incredible that he has not been treated and his face was allowed to grow so big. However, through years of medical misinformation, some misdiagnosis, lack of finances, and reluctance to undergo treatment due to religious beliefs, the growth has continued to obliterate his face.

The doctors could have operated to remove the growths but the patient is a Jehovah’s Witness so could not accept blood from another.

This little girl seems to have Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia. The giant tumor has not only deformed her face, but severely affected her respiratory system.

The painful tumor now engulfs her face and is endangering her life. A team of doctors in Miami are ready to help the 14-year-old girl.

UPDATE: Casseus has undergone four reconstructive surgeries since coming to Miami in December 2005. Once she reaches 18, further cosmetic surgeries will take place to try to correct the deformities caused by the tumor

These images look so sick and totally twisted… Fools better be sure they get salt with iodine in it to avoid this shit. These are people who have a condition called goiter. Its a swelling of the thyroid gland from what I know and lack of iodine may contribute to this crap.

Here is Paris Hilton… she looks like she may have a butt or ass cheek goiter from this shot. What the hell is up with her butt?   Maybe she needs plastic surgery to fix that shit.
