Eman Ahmed a 36 year old woman thought to be the world’s fattest, has undergone life-saving weight-loss surgery.
Ahmed is pictured lying in bed after surgeons reduced her 79 stone bulk by almost a fifth (16 stone).
She had not left her home for 25 years prior to the surgery.
She was lifted out of her bed by crane and put on a cargo plane for the journey from her Egypt home to India.
One of the world’s leading bariatric surgeons had volunteered to treat her after an appeal from her family for help.
A spokesperson for Mumbai’s Saifee Hospital confirmed the surgery had taken place.
“We are trying to get her fit enough to fly back to Egypt as soon as possible,” the hospital said in a statement.
