The operation, performed by a multidisciplinary team, involved careful excision of multiple cysts of varying sizes. Post‑operative reports indicate that the cysts were benign, but the sheer weight and number raised concerns among the medical staff.
Doctors also highlighted a potential link to parasitic infections, noting that the patient had recently consumed unwashed vegetables. They advised strict hygiene practices and further monitoring for any lingering infection.
