Dede Koswara, 37, from Indonesia dubbed the ‘Tree Man of Java’ because he looks like a tree, finally had two kilos of bark-like growths removed from his hands and feet. Dede’s weird tree like growth was caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and a rare immune system deficiency he suffered from, that prevents his body from fighting HPV, resulting in massive growths of bark-like warts according to US dermatology expert Dr Anthony Gaspari last year.
