15‑kg Ovarian Tumour Successfully Removed at Williamnagar Civil Hospital, Meghalaya

Surgeons at Williamnagar Civil Hospital in Meghalaya removed a 15‑kilogram ovarian tumour from a female patient, completing the operation without reported complications. The tumour, comparable in size to a small watermelon, is unusually large for ovarian growths and required a multidisciplinary team to manage blood loss and preserve surrounding organs. Hospital officials said the successful surgery highlights the growing surgical expertise within Meghalaya’s public health system and is expected to boost confidence among residents seeking advanced care locally. The patient is reported to be in stable condition and will undergo post‑operative monitoring and rehabilitation.
