A young boy from Cuba who underwent surgery in Florida to remove a massive 10-pound tumor from his face has died.

The surgery performed at the Holtz Children’s Hospital in Jackson Memorial was initially successful. But a few days later the health condition of 14-year-old Emanuel Zayas plummeted with kidney and lung complications, according to the Miami Herald.
