In what scientists are calling a world first, a 3-inch worm was found alive after doctors performed surgery on the brain of an Australian woman.
The worm was pulled from a 64-year-old woman last year, who had been suffering from symptoms including stomach pain, cough, forgetfulness and depression, according to the findings documented in a study in the Emerging Infectious Diseases Journal from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Doctor forgot to remove the 3 meter long worm living in her digestive tract.
What if it let some eggs in the woman's brain??
Great work Doctor, Bravo!
It makes you wonder if this is more common than thought…has this created complications for other people as well, but they never found it before? Just wonder…so glad they discovered & removed it.
Pretty cool. A baby alien crashing through her rib cage and jumping off the table and onto the floor and running away would've been way cooler.
Worms and parasites are more prevalent than doctors sometimes want to believe I know the doctors in the United States
No wonder they act weird!
Egads, comes from a snake!
