AUCKLAND lock Kurtis Haiu has been diagnosed with a bone tumor in his ribs and is taking an indefinite break from rugby to have it treated, the Blues said yesterday. The tumor was found during a CT scan, Blues doctor Stephen Kara said.
"This appears to be a primary bone tumor, but he will have to undergo a series of further tests including surgery to definitively confirm the type of tumor. Until this time, prognosis is uncertain," he said.
