The 22-year-old man noticed a deterioration last year, according to the center.

They also noted that due to the strong weight loss, the young man decided to see a doctor. At the clinic, he was diagnosed with a congenital anomaly that arose due to the incorrect arrangement of blood vessels.

According to Lyashenko, this anomaly usually manifests itself in adulthood. Without treatment, the patient could die.

He noted that the problem was solved thanks to the intervention of surgeons. Now the young man can eat solid food without problems.
