This Man's Strange Medical Condition Gave Him Tree Branches For Arms

Pounds Off

Like Bajardan, Koswara had hoped for removing warts and growths from his skin. He was able to receive a similar surgery that took 13 pounds of warts from his body. The procedure happened in three parts. First, removing the thick carpet of warts and horns on his hands. Next, the doctors would handle removing smaller warts on the head, body, and feet. Lastly, they covered his hands with grafted skin.
