I am both honoured and thrilled to share about another successfully done tricky surgery , which we as cardiac surgeons of Aakash hospital feel proud for pushing the boundaries of cardiovascular care .
It was a complicated Redo DVR ( double valve replacement ) surgery of mere 27 yr old mother who underwent DVR in 2019 , Following which her valves got stuck . She was in gross heart failure , significant anemia ,severe PAH and other complications which added on to the risk of mortality .
It was a marathon surgery of 10 hours where not only we successfully replaced the valves taking all challenges including adhesions, pannus present at valves , raised pulmonary pressures but also the post operative period went smooth without any complications and minimal drains . Only after 1 day of surgery she was extubated and on 3rd post op day she was ambulated . It was overwhelming to hear it from patient how happy she is this time undergoing surgery with such good recovery in comparison to the previous surgery .
I, Dr Amrish Kumar on the behalf of our CTVS team headed by Dr Abhay kumar and cardiac anesthetist Dr Gaurav jain would like to thank our MD sir ( Dr Aashish Choudhary ) for his constant support in our ups and downs which lead us to embark on this journey of compassion , resilience and healing beyond borders.
