A FIR tree has been found growing inside a man’s lung by surgeons who operated for suspected cancer.


After the patient complained of serious chest pains, doctors started to remove what they thought was a lethal tumour.

But instead of a cancer they found the fir tree, which had already grown to two inches in length. The discovery was made by Russian doctors as they operated on Artyom Sidorkin, 28, at a hospital in the Ural Mountains.

Apart from the chest pains, Sidorkin had been coughing up blood and doctors were convinced he had cancer.

“We were 100 per cent sure,” said surgeon Vladimir Kamashev from Izhevsk, a town in the western Urals.

“We did X-rays and found what looked exactly like a tumour. I had seen hundreds before, so we decided on surgery.” The discovery was made as the surgeons were about to remove part of Artyom’s lung.

“I thought I was hallucinating,” said Kamashev. “I asked my assistant to have a look. I said, ‘Come and see this – we’ve got a fir tree here’.

“He nodded in shock. I blinked three times, sure I was seeing things.”

Medical staff believe Sidorkin had somehow inhaled a seed from the spruce fir trees that surround his home in the mountains.

The seed germinated and later sprouted into the small tree inside one of the man’s lungs. Doctors said the fir, which was touching on blood vessels and causing severe pain, was successfully removed along with part of the patient’s lung.

“It was very painful, but to be honest I did not feel any foreign object inside me,” said Sidorkin,

He said that discovery of the fir tree inside him was good news, adding: “I’m so relieved it’s not cancer.”

Fearing people might suspect a hoax, the hospital ordered the piece of lung and tiny fir tree to be preserved for further study.

Did he inhale the seed of this tree? What was he smoking to make this happen? And doesn't a tree require soil and sunlight to grow? Very odd indeed. This could be a sign of a new humanoid plant life species.
