Operation of Two Patients Successfully Completed at PMCH
In a significant development, the Orthopedic Department of the prestigious Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) successfully completed two complex surgeries of the spine and throat. This is the first time such surgeries have been performed at PMCH, marking a major milestone for the hospital. The surgeries were conducted by Dr. Mahesh Prasad and his team, who have been working tirelessly for several days to ensure the success of the operations. The Head of the Department, Dr. Bharat Singh, congratulated the team on their achievement.
Successful Surgeries Bring Relief to Patients
One of the surgeries involved a 60-year-old patient from East Champaran who underwent a procedure to stabilize his spine by using a bone graft and cage. This modern operation has been highly successful, and the patient is expected to make a full recovery and regain the ability to walk in a few days. The second surgery was performed on a patient from Samastipur who had suffered a broken neck bone due to an injury. The surgery involved reattaching the injured part, and the results have been promising so far, with improved strength in the hands and feet and the end of paralysis.
Swift Recovery Expected for Patients
The complex surgeries were carried out with the assistance of senior resident doctors and a team of anesthesia. The procedure, called ACDF (Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion), has a high success rate and has been effective in restoring strength and mobility in patients. Both patients are expected to recover within two to three days, thanks to the expertise and dedication of the medical team at PMCH.
