Port Access Cardiac Surgery In Delhi, India




Port-Access surgery has been one of the most innovative forms of cardiac operations and has been widely used for the treatment of several cardiac diseases. Port access surgery is a version of the traditional coronary artery bypass graft where the sternum is not split. Small incisions or ports are made in the chest through which the surgeon will perform the operation.
Port- Access technique is safe and permits reproduction of standardized results with the use of a very limited surgical approach.

Doctors performed surgery on a one-year-old boy suffering from rare neurological disorder.

Doctors at a city hospital performed life-saving surgery on a one-year-old boy suffering from rare neurological disorder 
dancing eye-dancing feet syndrome.At just one Ayaan was diagnosed with a rarest of rare condition–a dancing eye-dancing feet syndrome–that causes abnormal jerky movements of the eyes, head, trunk, and extremities. With a rare occurrence of 1 in 10 million, this medical condition represents a serious problem with a tumour near the lung and heart arteries.
“Initial assessment of the child revealed a neurological disorder which appears to be the result of an autoimmune process involving the nervous system. A rare presentation of a tumor originating from neural tissue (neuroblastoma) was diagnosed. MRI of the chest and spine revealed a well defined moderately enhancing tumor close to the side of the chest. The tumor was lying close to the major vessel (aorta),” said Dr. Prashant Jain, ConsultantPaediatric Surgery and Paediatric UrologyBLK Super Specialty Hospital.
The challenge for the doctors was to remove the tumor completely without damaging adjacent organs. After much deliberations, doctors decided for the relatively painless minimal invasive surgery as the open surgery was fraught with risks and long hospitalization. “We explained to the parents of the boy about the risk involved and the need for postoperative ventilation. We performed the surgery under general anesthesia with key hole incisions… Another difficult task was to dissect tumor without damaging adjacent organs,” Jain said.
Ayaan was operated upon in the last week of May and the tumor was successfully removed. He was discharged after two days. “Biopsy and genetic testing confirmed our preoperative diagnosis of neuroblastoma,” the doctor said.
