New Delhi: A team of doctors accomplished an exceedingly difficult and profoundly altering medical miracle by successfully treating a 14-year-old Manipur boy’s severe scoliosis. This condition required a highly complex and intricate surgical procedure.
The youngster had scoliosis, which causes the spine to curve abnormally.
Surgeons have successfully removed a hemivertebra, or partially developed vertebra, from the spine during a demanding five-hour procedure. Precise adjustment was necessary for this complex surgery to properly align the spine and safeguard the surrounding nerves. Because of the significant chance of paralysis, a number of prestigious hospitals had deemed the surgery too dangerous. The surgical team’s proficiency was essential in managing the intricacies of the spine and guaranteeing the patient’s safety.
“This surgery was particularly challenging due to the complexity of removing a half-formed vertebra while protecting the spinal nerves,” said Himanshu Tyagi, Additional Director of Orthopedics and Spine at Fortis Hospital Greater Noida.
“Days after the surgery, the boy is walking around, climbing stairs, and showing no signs of neurological complications,” said the doctor, a beacon of hope for others facing similar conditions.
The patient’s family, overwhelmed with gratitude, thanked the medical staff profusely and praised their knowledge and dedication.
“This surgery has given our son a new lease of life,” said the boy’s father, his voice filled with gratitude and relief.
