January 31st, 2012 - 3:24 pm ICT by IANS ( Leave a comment )Beijing, Jan 31 (IANS) A three-centimetre long needle was removed from a woman’s head in China after doctors operated on her to bring her out of a coma.
Forty-nine-year old Lin Xuefen collapsed on the Lunar New Year’s day and went into a coma.
Her sudden illness was a mystery until a medical exam revealed the needle.
Lin had met with a traffic accident 18 years ago and has since suffered regular headaches. She was in good condition after the surgery, China Daily reported Tuesday.
