8th case in the world. Unique case in Turkey! He will continue his life without half of his body

65-year-old retired teacher Tuncer Poşluk, who lives in Istanbul and could not be treated due to the large mass in his coccyx, found healing in SEAH. As a result of the examinations performed here, the ‘Hemicorperectomy’ operation, which is a surgery to separate the tumor and the organs surrounded by the tumor from the body, was performed in order to completely save the patient. Poşluk’s body from the waist down was cut off, along with the tumor and the organs surrounding the tumor. After a difficult surgery that lasted approximately 13 hours, Poşluk was taken to the service after a 40-day intensive care period, and his treatment continues in the orthopedics department.
