Doctor Nguyen Quoc Bao - Head of the Head of Ancient Surgery (K Hospital), the main surgeon, said that Lu Thi Long's tumor was more difficult and dangerous than the tumor on her face Luc Thi Hai ( removed in 2007) because the patient had four large tumors on his face.

In it, two large tumors on the cheeks are distorting the face. Doctors have removed the entire tumor in the upper jaw bone, other small jaws in the lower jaw will be processed in the near future.

Dr. Bao said that the tumor had invaded the meninges, the patient was very easy to die without timely surgery. The tumor removed weighed nearly a pound, and a large amount of fluid and blood were removed.
