His second operation will remove another section of the tumours, weighing 4.5kg.Huang suffers from Neurofibromatosis, which is a genetic disorder of the nervous system that primarily affects the development and growth of nerve tissues.

His facial tumour first became noticeable when he was just 4 years old, the hospital said in July. Since then it grew larger at an ever faster rate, blocking his left eye, pushing his left ear to shoulder level, knocking out his teeth and deforming his backbone.

Sexy Russian Model - Chess Champion Alexandra

Russian swimsuit model Alexandra Kosteniuk has been crowned Queen of Chess after winning the Women's World Chess Championship.
The 23-yr-old model whose motto is "beauty and intelligence can go together", has worked as a catwalk and swimsuit model to raise the profile of the game.
She also sells sultry semi-clad photographs of herself, and has made a 36-minute video which shows her "doing exercises on Miami beach".
She has dismissed claims her modelling exploits distract people from the intellectual importance of chess.
She says: "Modelling is not a job. It is just a hobby, like reading books. I want people to see there is a fun side to chess. It can be made as exciting as soccer or tennis. Things are changing. I am clever, so I can play chess; and I am not so ugly, so I can model."Kosteniuk became a Grandmaster at 14, the youngest woman in the world to attain the title And at the age of 20 she achieved the International Grandmaster title.
