A 25-year-old Pakistani girl, who has spent most of her life in hospitals, has just underwent her 100th surgery related to a rare skin disease. The 100th surgery has been performed on Fauzia Yousuf at the Shaikh Zayed Hospital (SZH) Lahore who has been suffering from “fibromatoses” from an early age. I was eight-year-old when I had first surgery on my left arm. “We are much concerned about her life because no donor area for skin grafting is available in her body. It is nightmarish to see the disease appearing on other parts of her body,” Dr Ahmad added.
