A seven-year-old boy from West Bengal, Dildar Sheikh, who developed a major cancerous tumour on his lower back, successfully underwent a surgery at a city hospital, doctors said on Sunday. Son of a rickshaw puller, Dildar started facing problems after a small lump on his lower back went undiagnosed for seven months.
The lump later developed into a major cancerous tumour, making it difficult for the boy to walk. Since they could not find right facilities in West Bengal, Dildar’s parents turned to hospitals outside the state for <g data-gr-id="12">help,</g> and found one in Gurgaon’s Paras Hospital, which has expertise in treating cancers.
