Lucknow: A man in Uttar Pradesh’s Gorakhpur was found to have female reproductive organs in his body while he underwent hernia surgery.
The 46-year-old Rajgir Mistri, father of two, went to a hospital after experienced severe stomach pain for a few days.
An ultrasound was done, revealing a piece of flesh in his lower stomach which was coming in contact with other internal organs due to which he had developed hernia.
He then went to a free hernia check-up camp, where Dr Narendra Dev, Professor at Gorakhpur’s BRD Medical College, confirmed that the ultrasound report clearly showed hernia.
Dr Dev and his team immediately operated on Mistri, and to their surprise, found an underdeveloped uterus and an ovary inside his body.
The doctors found that the piece of flesh which came out of the abdominal membrane and reached the canal was an underdeveloped uterus and adjacent to it was an ovary.
According to Dr Dev, there was a birth deformity in Mistri’s body, but showed no women-like features.
Mistri is healthy and recovering well post the operation.
