“A remarkable individual came into this world burdened with an exceptionally severe case of facial tumors, to the extent that he is now living without a recognizable face.”
A MAN was born with such a severe case of facial tumours that he no longer has a face.
Latif Khatana, from Jammu in India, has suffered from Neurofibromatosis since birth – a condition that causes tumours to grow on nerve tissue.

Though Latif’s tumours grow all over his body, unfortunately the largest ones are on his face.
With both his eyes covered by the large folds of skin, Latif has lost most of his eyesight.
After having suffered years of abuse for his condition, Latif is now a happily married father of two.
Him and his wife Salima, who was born missing a foot, bonded over their disabilities.
However, the parents are still afraid that their daughters might one day start showing signs of Latif’s condition.
