In a bizarre case, a doctor working on a cancer patient accidentally transplanted the dreaded disease himself-which is considered a kind of event. According to news reports, a 32 -year -old man from Germany was detected a rare type of cancer and was undergoing surgery to remove the tumor from his stomach.

While living in surgery, the doctor who performed the fibrous hysteriteoma process accidentally cut off his hand. Reports states that the wound disinfected and immediately banded. While the initial surgery of the cancer patient was successful, he died after complications after the procedure. However, a few months later, the 57 -year -old doctor noted about 1.2 inches at the site of the injury, a small lump, which, after the test, was detected to be a deadly tumor.

As daily MailThe tumor examination found that it was genetically similar to cancer by the doctor’s former patient. This led the medical team, who treated the doctor to conclude that he had caught cancer when tumor cells entered the cut in his hand.

The doctor’s body had an ineffective anti-tumor immune response

This rare medical case, published in New England Journal of MedicineOriginally reported in 1996, but recently revived.

The medical fraternity calls it a general condition because in a traditional implant, the body mounts an immune response and rejects any foreign tissue – as expected in the case of the surgeon. However, given the growth and development of tumors, experts say that the doctor’s body had ‘ineffective anti-tumor immune response’.

Researchers said that since both the doctor and his patient had the same type of cells and arrangements, it meant that there could be surgeons. Inadvertently transferred cancer cells To cut his hand from the patient, allows the disease to take root and grow in his body. “Generally, the implant of alogenic tissue from one person to another induces an immune response that leads to rejection of implanted tissue. In the case of the surgeon, an intensive inflammatory reaction developed in the tissue around the tumor, but increased the tumor mass, suggesting an ineffective anti-tumor immune response, “The authors wrote in their report in the magazine.

The authors also speculated that the tumor survived the immunological destruction ‘through many mechanisms,’ its cells include changes in molecules and failure to effectively identify and attack the surgeon’s body failure.

Two years after the surgeon removed his tumor, there were no indications that the cancer had spread or returned.

No other such cases have been registered

Experts say that any other cases like surgeons have been registered and there are no data on ‘transplanted’ cancer. In the study of such cases published in 2013 Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in therapy, Experts say that there is no risk of risk to transmit cancer from donor to recipient and has limited data on the subject. “The incident of any cancer transmission is so low that sporadic cases reports are the main source of information,” the report said.

A review earlier in the 90s also saw comprehensive data, which found that there were only sporadic reports of cancer through organ donations. However, the authors continued, the data ‘is highly likely to reduce the actual event.’

Using the limited data available, the authors of the 2013 report found that the cancer has been sent to the recipient on at least one occasion from the donor, with breast cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, lung cancer, melanoma, Ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and kidney cancer.
