PLA Daily 2004-01-13

  Recently, the Neurosurgery Department of the General Hospital of the Chengdu Military Area Command successfully removed a tumor from the spinal cord of a 26-year-old patient. The tumor is very long and rarely seen in the world. The total length of the tumor in the snake-shaped spinal cord is 23 cm, and so far, no medical document has ever recorded such a tumor in the world.
