Milestone in Advanced GI Surgery
“Some surgeries test your hands, a Whipple tests your mind and soul.”
Dr. Mathews Michael, MS, MCh (Surgical Gastroenterology), of M R Hospitals, Thanjavur, successfully demonstrated a Laparoscopic Whipple procedure for periampullary carcinoma at Thoothukudi Medical College.
A complex procedure performed with precision, shared with 40 surgeons—reflecting our commitment to surgical excellence and academic leadership.
We thank Dr. Rakesh Fernando, Dr. Nirmal Kumar, and the Department of General Surgery for organizing this program.
