Kidney stone size of a coconut removed from man

Sandor Sarkadi underwent an abdominal operation in Debrecen, 150 miles east of Budapest, after doctors discovered the stone following an X-ray.



Mr Sarkadi was rushed into an operation in the Kenez Gyula Hospital after the X-ray showed a giant lump.



Kidney stones do not normally get much bigger than a golf ball, and even that is usually considered very large.
