Surgery cuts 100kg off heaviest woman
Print Edition
INDIAN doctors say that an Egyptian who is believed to be the world’s heaviest woman had successfully undergone weight-loss surgery after losing over 100 kilograms.
Eman Ahmed Abd El Aty, who previously weighed around 500kg, had not left her house in Egypt in over two decades until arriving in Mumbai last month for bariatric surgery.
“We are happy to inform all well-wishers that the medical team of Saifee Hospital has successfully performed the surgery on Eman Ahmed,” said a statement issued yesterday.
“Eman successfully underwent a Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy on March 7, 2017. She had an uneventful surgery and anesthesia course. She is now on oral fluids and accepting them well,” it added.
A spokeswoman for Dr Muffazal Lakdawala, who is leading her treatment, said the 37-year-old’s weight had been brought under 400kg since she arrived in Mumbai in early February. “Eman has lost over 100kg and has been shedding weight gradually on a daily basis.”
Eman is still believed to be the heaviest woman ahead of American Pauline Potter who the Guinness Book of World Records put at 293kg last July.
