Knife lodged in Man's Brains for 4 years.


Recommended Posts

Li Fu had complained to his doctor of a continuous headache, but the cause of the pain shocked Mr Li and the medical fraternity.

 

An X-ray revealed that a 10cm knife blade had been stuck in Mr Li's brain for more than four years, The Daily Mail has reported.

 

"Li Fu from Yunnan Province, China, was stabbed during a robbery in 2006, and the blade of the knife had lodged in his cranium," The Mail said.

 

"Despite receiving treatment for his injuries, doctors failed to notice the knife buried deep in the 37-year-old's skull.

 

"Incredibly, it wasn't until Li visited the doctor last month to complain of his continuous migraines that doctors finally made the grim discovery after a routine X-ray."

Mr Li and his family were so shocked that they asked for a second opinion before agreeing to let doctors operate.

 

"The second doctor confirmed the suspicions and Li underwent an operation to remove the knife at People's Hospital in Yuxi City, Yunnan Province on Saturday," The Mail said.

 

He is in a stable condition in hospital.

 

"Luo Zhiwei, a surgeon at People's Hospital of Yuxi, said he had never seen anything so bizarre in his entire career," The Mail said.

 

"He said it was a miracle that Li could survive being stabbed in the head, let alone survive having the knife lodged in his brain for four years."

Dr Luo said the knife was almost intact when they removed it from Mr Li's skull.
