Russian surgeons remove branch from man's lung


Russian surgeons removed a two-inch Fir tree branch from a man's lung.
At first, doctors believed it was a tumor but when they started cutting they found the green needles.
Did the tree grow in the man's lung?
A botanist says no, because the plant needs light to grow.
The 28-year-old patient came to the hospital complaining of pain in his chest and coughing up blood.
He believes he may have accidentally inhaled the fir tree branch.
