An Egyptian woman weighing 500 kilogram, who has not moved out of her house for 25 years, reached Mumbai today for her weight reduction treatment.
Eman Ahmed, 36, one of the heaviest women in the world, is currently under the care of a city-based bariatric surgeon Muffazal Lakdawala, and his team of doctors.
Dr Lakdawala and his team have been treating Eman for almost three months and have taken all the necessary precautions needed for the transportation of bed-bound Eman from Egypt’s Alexandria city.
As a precautionary measure, the flight has been furnished with all the equipments required in case of an emergency such as portable ventilator, portable defibrillator, oxygen cylinders, intubating laryngoscopes and other safety drugs.
