Man lost half his head after smashing it on concrete [Photo]

These are the shocking images of a man who has been left with half a head following an accident at work. Elvis Romeo Lingurar, 24 was working as a labourer on a school demolition job when he lost his balance and fell, smashing his head on the concrete below. The impact of the six foot fall shattered Elvis skull and doctors were forced to remove half of it in order to save his life. Elvis from Livada, Russia, spent several days in a coma where doctors battled to save his life but it wasnt until he left hospital a fortnight later and looked in the mirror that he realised the extent of his injuries. Without the left-hand side of his skull Elvis brain is protected by only a thin layer of skin, leaving him unable to work as the slightest knock to his head could prove fatal. Elvis could undergo surgery to have the missing part of his skull replaced with a prosthetic but unable to afford the 500 procedure, Elvis is forced to live with his disfigurement.

Doctors were forced to remove a large section of Elvis Romeo Lingurar's shattered skull in order to save his life.
But it's left the 24-year-old, from Livada, unable to work - as his brain is now only protected by a thin layer of skin.
"His skull was seriously broken, his head bruised and he had to undergo surgery after he formed a blood clot on the brain, but miraculously, he recovered,"
