Worth,TX (USA) to Dubai (United Arab Emirates), was enroute at FL350 about 130nm northnortheast of Warsaw (Poland) when a male passenger (55) suffered a stroke prompting the crew to divert to Warsaw where the aircraft landed safely on runway 33 about 30 minutes later. Due to construction work the aircraft could not vacate on the next taxiway but needed to turn around on the runway and backtrack to taxi to the apron, while turning around to backtrack the nose gear struck runway edge lights causing damage to one of the nose wheels. The ill passenger was taken to a hospital, the aircraft was unable to continue the flight.</blockquote>
