Gertrude Levandowski underwent surgery in 1951. For a total of 4 whole days Gertrude Levandowski underwent surgery at a Chicago hospital to have a cyst removed. Not any cyst but a giant ovarian cyst. Until now it is considered to be one of the longest lasting surgical operations in history. It was a long grueling task that surgeons and the whole medical team underwent to save the life of Gertrude Levandowski. The surgery was over 96 hours long and the cyst removed was weighed in at over 150 pounds. Before the surgery Gertrude Levandowski weighed in over 600 lbs. There were also about 150 lbs of fluid removed from Gertrude Levandowski. I wonder how longwould the surgery take in a modern hospital with a modern medical team. Whatever the case is the operation of Gertrude Levandowski is definitely one to remember. I don’t believe that another surgical operation like this has happened before. It really is one of a kind.
