Man, 65, has head-sized tumor removed from neck after refusing to go to hospital for 16 years

A Russian man had a hulking tumor the size of his head surgically removed from his neck after more than a decade of using failed home remedies in hopes it would “go away on its own.”

The 65-year-old resident of the city of Kirov lived with the ever-growing tumor, which weighed down on the base of his neck, for a staggering 16 years.
