The 1.13Kg kidney stone the size of a coconut

The 1.13Kg kidney stone the size of a coconut

The largest kidney stones most doctors ever get to see is the size of a golf ball.

So surgeons in Hungary were taken aback when they removed a stone the size of a coconut

from a man earlier today. Sandor Sarkadi underwent an abdominal operation in Debrecen,

150 miles east of Budapest, after doctors discovered he had a kidney stone inside him that

was 17 centimetres in diameter.

Mr Sardaki was rushed into an operation theatre in the Kenez Gyula

Hospital when an X-ray revealed he was carrying around the gigantic lump.

The delicate procedure to remove the stone, which weighed a staggering 2.48lbs,

passed without incident. Kidney stones vary in size.

They can be as small as a grain of sand or as large as a golf ball, which makes

Mr Sarkadi's stone all the more remarkable.
