[PHOTOS] SHOCKING: Giant Hair Ball Was Found And Removed From The Stomach Of A 14yrs Old Girl

In the stomach of a 14-year-old girl a giant hairball weighing at least 3 kilograms was found and has been removed .The Doctors believe the teenager could have been eating her hair for more than 10 years based on the size of hairball.

After complaining of pains in her abdomen, doctors at the King Edward Memorial Hospital in Mumbai carried out a CT scan and were shocked by the discovery.

Dr Jignesh Gandhi, who carried out the operation, said: "[At first] it appeared she had a tumour in her stomach."[But] further investigations showed that it was a huge hairball or a trichobezoar."

To remove the massive tangle and ensure the least amount of scarring to the patient, doctors performed intricate keyhole surgery through the stomach.

Taking nearly 90 minutes and a team of four doctors, Dr Gandhi commented on the procedure: "It was quite difficult to remove the entire mass in one.
"It weighed at least 3kg. We've had such cases in the past but the size of this hairball was certainly the biggest [I've seen]."
