康涅狄格州一家医院的医生说,他们从一位妇女的腹部切除了一个132磅重的肿瘤,预计她将完全康复。

The ovarian tumor was diagnosed after the 38-year-old woman reported rapid weight gain of about 10 pounds per week over a two-month period.

据说这位38岁的女性在两个月的时间里每周体重都快速增加约10磅,随后被诊断出卵巢肿瘤。

The doctors at Danbury Hospital announced Thursday that the five-hour surgery was completed successfully after extensive planning by a team of 25 clinical specialists.

丹伯里医院的医生们周四宣布,由25名临床专家组成的团队进行大量手术规划后,历时5个小时,手术成功完成。

The tumor was benign, but because it was sitting on a major blood vessel, doctors say they were concerned about the patient’s heart. The patient was also malnourished because the tumor was sitting on her digestive tract.

肿瘤是良性的,但是因为它的位置在一个重要血管上,医生说他们担心过病人的心脏情况。病人也因为肿瘤压迫到消化道而导致营养不良。

Pathologists have been conducting genetic tests on the tumor to learn why it grew so quickly.
