68 year old Gets a New Lease of Life at Wockhardt Hospitals

Saturday, November 21, 2009

Doctors at Wockhardt Hospitals,Bangalore led by Dr. Ganeshakrishnan Iyer, Consultant Cardiovascular Surgeon, gave a news lease of life to 68 year old man who was suffering from Chronic Type B Dissection of the Aorta with rupture in the Plura (space around the lung) a condition with high fatality rate. He was returned to normal life after a marathon ten hour surgery to repair the breached aorta.

Sampangi, a retired employee of BHEL, first complained of pain in the chest, back and knee as early as 2003. After, initial treatment at a hospital in the city, he was sent home as the doctors felt that his condition was too risky for surgery. He was normal for a while and then the symptoms resurfaced within a couple of years. Once again he started complaining of pain in the knee, back and chest which his family ignored it initially. As time went by the pain became unbearable and he found it difficult to walk a few steps. He was confined to bed for more than 3 months. Later, he stopped taking solid food because of pain while swallowing.

At this stage he was brought to Wockhardt Hospitals to consult Dr. Ranganath Nayak, Consultant Cardiologist, who diagnosed him with Chronic Type B Dissection of the Aorta with rupture in the Plura. He was loosing blood in the chest (plural cavity) and his lung was compressed necessitating surgery. He was then referred to Dr. Ganeshakrishnan Iyer, Consultant, Cardiovascular Surgeon, Wockhardt Hospitals who performed the surgery.On 7th November 2009 Sampangi underwent the surgery which surgery lasted for more than 10 hours.

“On opening the chest the lung was found to be completely compressed by a thick layer of blood clot. On removal of the blood clot the lung was still not expanding and hence it had to be removed. Subsequently the Aorta was repaired using a left heart bypass where part of the blood is drained from the heart and pumped to the lower body using a heart lung machine in order to supply blood to the lower body while the aorta is repaired.” said Dr. Ganeshakrishnan Iyer.

Post surgery, Sampangi was kept under observation for 3 days and later shifted to the room. He started having solid food the next day and started walking for 5 minutes with minimal help.

“Generally most cases of Aortic Dissection are associated with hypertension (High BP); about 80% of cases occur in patients with a history of High Blood Pressure. According to studies the occurrence of Type B Dissection of the Aorta is about 2.7% to 3.5 % per 100,000 patient-years. The condition is more common in men than women at about 5:1 ratio. Most incidents occur between 60 to 70 years. In women less than 40 years of age 50% of cases occur during pregnancy,” Dr. Iyer added.

The Aorta is the main artery that carries blood to the body. It is made up of three layers, the intima, the media, and the adventitia. During Aortic Dissection the blood penetrates the intima and enters the media layer creating a false lumen (abnormal channel of blood within the wall of the involved artery). Aortic Dissection is caused by tear in the wall of the aorta (between the intima and the media layers).

Aortic Dissection can be classified as type A and B based on the involvement of the ascending aorta or the descending aorta respectively. This condition is extremely serious and there is a high fatality rate even with immediate emergency treatment. If the tear in the aorta goes through all three layers then there is rapid blood loss resulting in 80% mortality. A high percentage of patients die before reaching the Hospital.

Type B Dissection of the Aorta accounts for 40% of all Aortic Dissection and its occurrence is more frequent in the mornings between 6 to 10 am and in the winter season.

Treatment

Aggressive blood pressure control should be initiated immediately. The treatment is targeted to reduce aortic pressure and pulsatile flow.

Type B Dissection is managed initially with aggressive drug therapy. Indications for surgical treatment of type B dissections are aortic rupture (as in the case of Sampangi); severe intractable pain; mesenteric, renal, or limb ischemia; and progression of the dissection. Some of the methods used are

• Replacement of the damaged section with a tube graft
• Insertion of a stent, combined with on-going medical management

91 year old back on his feet after a successful bilateral knee replacement surgery

Friday, November 20, 2009





Mr Madhukar seen above with Dr Kaushal Malhan


It’s never too late for a new beginning....

For Mr Madhukar nothing is more apt than these words.

Wockhardt Hospitals,Mumbai,Mulund has successfully performed a bilateral total knee replacement surgery in a single sitting on a 91 year old man from Mulund.In the process “Wockhardt Hospitals puts 91 year old Mr. Madhukar Nimdeo back on his feet after a successful bilateral knee replacement surgery”

Dr. Kaushal Malhan, Knee & Hip Replacement Surgeon, Wockhardt Hospitals performed the surgery on 91 year old Mr. Madhukar Nimdeo who was suffering from end-stage knee arthritis with minimal blood loss with a combination of advanced muscle sparing surgical exposure, specialized mix of navigation techniques and better patient-specific implants.

Mr. Nimdeo a retired central government employee who loves traveling and has always led an active life was suffering from knee pain for the last 8 years. Due the extreme deformity in both the knees caused by arthritis Mr. Nimdeo had to restrict his physical activities. However this couldn’t curb him from exploring adventurous sport for too long. While on his visit to New Zealand five years back he participated in bungee jumping despite his knee condition and recorded as the oldest member in New Zealand to participate in bungee jumping. But once he returned to India his condition worsened. Upon consultation with Dr. Kaushal Malhan he decided to go ahead with total knee replacement of both his knees.

“The results of the surgery are extremely encouraging and it proves that Tissue Preserving Total Knee Replacement Surgery offers good results even for very aged patients because of minimal tissue damage around the operating site. We have almost stopped the use of blood transfusions for knee replacement surgeries, even for patients who have been operated on both knees in one sitting.” said Dr. Kaushal Malhan.

Since the surgery involved minimal damage to the surrounding tissues, post operation, the nonagenarian was able to walk the same day of his surgery and also participated cheerfully in the hospital’s sporting activities held on the occasion of World Arthritis Day recently.

The Tissue Preserving Total Knee Replacement surgery goes beyond the general scope of conventional TKR surgeries that involve cutting through the quadriceps muscle during the surgery. Conventional Total Knee Replacement surgery causes trauma to the surrounding tissues that result in painful, long, recuperation periods. The patient would typically need walking aids for three to six weeks for the tissues to heal. However, in the case of Tissue Preserving TKR, the procedure involves just flipping across the muscles to reach the bone.

The specialised technique perfected by Dr Kaushal Malhan allows the advantage of satisfactory surgical exposure in all patients including the very obese with easy implantation of standard implants with standard instrumentation. Lesser tissue damage means less pain and earlier recovery.

Tissue Preserving TKR surgery aims to reduce the collateral damage which has always been part of this operation. It combines a muscle sparing exposure (which does not damage the quadriceps muscle- the front main thigh muscle) with computer assisted alignment so as to reduce the need for ligament release and appropriate implants which sacrifice less normal bone. This technique offers, among others, the ability to bend the knee almost immediately after the operation, and walk without aids much faster than conventional TKR procedures. Above all, there is no danger of any complication because there is no blood loss.

Advantages of Tissue Preserving Total Knee Replacement Surgery
  • On the whole, there is less soft tissue damage and if combined with appropriate implants, one can reduce the amount of bone sacrificed during operation.
  • Less post surgery pain
  • Less bleeding and no need for blood transfusions.
  • Faster return of knee function – muscle strength and control comes back more quickly – allows faster rehabilitation. Patients can walk on day 1 after surgery.
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • Less soft tissue damage and a better result
  • Early return of knee motion
  • After surgery recovery time is less than one third of that with conventional TKR technique.

“My painful knees were quite discouraging for me in these 8 years as I had to restrict my physical activity and mobility was also compromised to a large extent. After attending a session on tissue sparing knee replacement by Dr. Kaushal Malhan, I made up my mind to undergo surgery of both the knees and I could see the benefits from day one of my surgery. I could bend my knee on the first post operative day and with a regular physiotherapy regime I am now completely back to what I was 20 years back!” said Mr. Nimdeo.

Trans Nasal Surgery Used to Remove a Woman's Tumor

Wednesday, November 18, 2009



For three years, a host of doctors were unable to diagnose Manju Talwar’s medical problem. The 24 year old school teacher complained of abnormal lactation, irregular menstrual cycles and was unable to conceive.

All symptoms suggested a possible gynaecological problem but despite heavy medication, Talwar’s condition did not improve. However, early this year, a MRI scan revealed a tumour in her pituitary gland.

The pea-sized gland situated at the base of the brain controls growth, metabolism and reproductive functions among others. In Talwar’s case, the tumour was pressing her optic nerve, which could lead to blindness. She was advised immediate surgery.

Talwar’s was not an easy surgery as while removing the tumour we had to ensure that the gland is preserved as she is in the child bearing age,” said Dr. Deepu Banerji, a neurosurgeon at Wockhardt Hospital,Mulund,Mumbai.

The Pituitary gland which is located at the center of the brain manufactures and secretes hormone that regulate growth ,sexual development and fluid balance in the body.

Pituitary adenomas(tumors) are abnormal growth on the pituitary glands which account for about 10% of intracranial neoplasms. They often remain undiagnosed, and small pituitary tumors have an estimated prevalence of 16.7% (14.4% in autopsy studies and 22.5% in radiologic studies). Tumor removal is usually done through transspheoidal approach. Endoscopic surgery is the new approach allowing a surgeon to gain maximum access within the narrow confines of the region avoiding extensive dissection.

Surgery is a common treatment for pituitary tumors. Trans-sphenoidal adenectomy surgery can often remove the tumor without affecting other parts of the brain. Endoscopic surgery has become common recently.

Dr Deepu Banerji, who operated on Talwar over three months, opted for a relatively new endoscopic trans-nasal technique for the delicate operation. This involved insertion of an endoscope through nasal cavity.

Banerji claimed that so far in Mumbai most doctors have been using microscopic transeptal technique, which involves a microscope inserted through the nasal cavity. This, he claimed has led to post-operative complications like numbness around nose and lips, nasal deformity or pain and incomplete removal of tumor.

In the new technique, an endoscope provides good view of the tumor to the doctor. Also, it makes it easier to differentiate between the tumor and the gland – leading to greater chances of complete tumour removal and preserving hormonal functions.

Talwar said she has so far not complained of any post-operative complications.For inquiries please contact us at enquiries@wockhardthospitals.net

Wockhardt Hospitals Bangalore Celebrates Children's Day

Tuesday, November 17, 2009












14th November,2009 was a special day for Wockhardt Hospitals,Bangalore.Apart from being Children s Day .. the day also celebrated as the day when Children from all over the city assembled at the hospital to say a big Cheers to Life. These Children were all at some point of their lives threatened by life threating congenital disorders,who managed to overcome their medical problems with a little help from the Hospital.

More than 50 children aged between 3 and 13 who had undergone cardiac surgery at Wockhardt Hospitals were treated to a variety of fun filled activities on the occasion of Children’s Day. Dr Devananda, Pediatric, Cardiac Surgeon Wockhardt Hospitals, who took part in the celebrations spoke on the prevalence of Congenital Heart Disease in India vis-à-vis the developed countries and stressed the need to create awareness among people that the Congenital Heart Disease is curable.

“Congenital Heart disease in a child is not the end of the world. This is a treatable condition with excellent success rate, the children present here today of all ages are a testament to this fact.” Dr Devananda, Pediatric, Cardiac Surgeon Wockhardt Hospitals

“Today, India has the expertise and the knowledge to treat this condition, however there are two major obstacles we need to overcome that is that lack of awareness of the disease and the non availability of finance as insurance companies in India do not cover pre-existing diseases” he added.

Magic shows, caricature, face-painting, interactive games and competitions enthralled the children who were eager to participate, adding to the happiness and joy of this special occasion.

But these were not your regular kids. All of them had suffered from life-threatening heart problems , at some point or the other and had gone through complicated surgeries at the Bannerghata Road,hospital at Bangalore.

"It was great to see these children doing so well and enjoying themselves at Children's Day. Seeing them so happy, no one would have guessed that they were suffering from fatal heart problem at one time," said Dr Devananda, pediatric cardiac surgeon.

The "reunion" party was as emotional for the families as it was for the doctors. And in between the celebrations, the parents recalled those difficult times when they were scared about their children safety.

Deepak Singh, father of Vikram Singh, who had a serious heart disease, said, "We had to take him to the hospital daily for checkups and after a lots of tests, we got to know that he had a hole in his heart. Those were the most difficult times of our life. But now that he is healthy, I have no words to explain how happy we feel."

A magic show, dance programmes and many other interactive sessions made the day special for the children. The enthusiasm of the kids soon inspired the adults too as many of them joined the little ones in the buoyant celebrations and some even shook a leg.

"Apart from the fun that we had, this event was a great platform to spread awareness about heart ailments. Also, families, which had gone through similar trauma, were brought together and the sharing of their knowledge and experiences, made the event a memorable one," said Dr Devananda.

He went on to add, "India, today, has the expertise and the knowledge to treat heart ailments, but we face two major obstacles. One is the lack of awareness and second is the non-availability of finance as insurance companies in India do not cover pre-existing diseases. We need to look into these issues now."

World Epilepsy Day: Beware of Unwashed Vegetables

November 17th is observed as World Epilepsy Day .Eplilepsy is the commonest serious neurological disorder; prevalence figures ranging from 2 to 5 per thousand people.The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that 10% of people have a seizure at some point in their lifetime, with 50 million suffering from active epilepsy. A study conducted by the Christian Medical College in Vellore in 2006 estimated that neurocysticercosis is the cause of nearly one-third of all the cases of active epilepsy in both urban and rural regions of Vellore. The study estimated that "about 1 million patients in India with active epilepsy attributable to neurocysticercosis''.

Neurocysticercosis is a condition in which parasitic tapeworms, from contaminated water and food, find their into the brain of an unsuspecting individual. The colony of tapeworms, which are breed in the brain, can trigger headaches, epilepsy, imbalance and even sudden death. On National Epilepsy Day on Tuesday, most doctors feel the battle against epilepsy can be won to a great extent if two of the preventable causes, namely birth injuries and neurocysticercosis, are dealt with firmly and effectively.


Neurocysticercosis is caused by ingestion of undercooked food, such as pork or vegetables grown in fecally-contaminated water or near sewage tanks. "People don't wash vegetables or sometimes eat undercooked pork. Tapeworm eggs that could be present in these items get injested into the body and find their way to the brain,'' said Dr Praveena Shah, who runs the city's E-Cell and is attached to Wockhardt Hospital in Mulund.

About 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, with almost 90% of these people being in developing countries. Epilepsy is more likely to occur in young children, or people over the age of 65 years, however it can occur at any time. Epilepsy is usually controlled, but not cured, with medication, although surgery may be considered in difficult cases. However, over 30% of people with epilepsy do not have seizure control even with the best available medications. Not all epilepsy syndromes are lifelong – some forms are confined to particular stages of childhood. Epilepsy should not be understood as a single disorder, but rather as syndromic with vastly divergent symptoms but all involving episodic abnormal electrical activity in the brain.

Diabetes and Heart Disease:How Diabetes can affect your Heart

Monday, November 16, 2009

India accounts for the largest number of diabetic patients in the world with approximately 56 million people affected and the number is set to grow to 900 million over the next 20 years i.e. 9% of the countries population. This disturbing trend has set alarm bells ringing as a large population of India still does not have access to basic health care needs. Unlike other diseases diabetics lasts for a lifetime leading to many other complications such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney failure, damaged arteries to name a few. Studies have estimated that two out of three diabetic patients are likely to die of heart disease or stroke.

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the human body fails to produce enough insulin or when there is disruption in the process of insulin circulation. Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas that enables cells to utilize glucose and convert it into energy. Most of the food we eat is converted into glucose (a from of sugar) and dispersed in the blood stream to be used as energy. In the absence of insulin the cells in the body are deprived of energy and begin to starve. Consequently glucose levels rise in the blood stream leading to several other disabilities.

High blood sugar over a period of time leads to damaged nerves and blood vessels. There is hardening of the blood vessels and increased deposit of cholesterol on their walls – a process termed as atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis can lead to narrowing of blood vessels with increased tendency of blood clot formation. The narrowing of blood vessels and the formation of blood clots are the leading causes of heart disease and stroke.

Facts on Diabetes

• A Diabetic patent is twice as likely of having heart disease or stroke as compared to a normal person.

• Diabetic patent tend to develop heart disease and stroke at a younger age than people without diabetics.

• People with diabetics are more likely to have a second heart attack as compared to healthy people.

• Women with diabetes are at a much higher risk of developing heart disease and stroke than men.

• Heart attacks in diabetic patents are generally more serious and complex and are more likely to be fatal.

• Diabetic patients are far more difficult to treat as high blood sugar levels slows down the natural healing process of the human body.

Precautions to avoid being a Diabetic

• Since diabetes is a chronic disease that can only be controlled, it is very important to stick to the advice given by the doctor and to take your daily dose of medication at the right times. Go for regular check ups and monitor your blood pressure and blood sugar regularly.

• Stick to a healthy diet: plan your diet with your doctor and stick to it. Diabetics require a diet that provides the necessary calories, fiber and protein. Care should be taken to avoid the intake of sugar, saturated fats and food with high cholesterol.

• Regular Exercise: follow a program that optimizes your physical activity, follow exercise routines and walk at least 45 minutes a day (consult your doctor before starting any exercise routine)

• Quit smoking: it could be the worst thing for you

Diabetes is a disease that patients can learn to live with and still lead very productive lives. Regular health checkups, healthy diet, Exercise and medication can keep diabetes well under control. Advancements in medical science has thrown up a number of new drugs that are very effective, however a large part to controlling diabetes lies with the individual leading a healthy lifestyle.

Arthroscopic Surgery with Coblation Technology:Nature-friendly surgery for joint & muscle problems

Nature-Friendly Surgery for Joint & Muscle pain

“Shoulder arthroscopic surgery with coblation restores the confidence in active home-maker Rina Gupta and brings her back quickly to regular routine”

Normally a very active home-maker Mrs. Rina Gupta for whom multitasking at her household management was a vital and enjoyable job, had to gradually restrict her activities due to continuous shoulder & arm pain, stiffness and weakness of her shoulder muscle. Struggling to get the basic household work done, Mrs. Gupta restored to various medications and regular physiotherapy for pain relief but saw no signs of improvement. When the pain refused to go and her dependency on her family increased, Mrs. Gupta decided to visit Wockhardt Hospitals for a final opinion for her shoulder pain. At Wockhardt Hospitals she was diagnosed with subacromial impingement with bursitis and acromio-clavicular joint osteoarthritis – inflammation and pinching of the tendon of the rotator cuff and was advised to undergo arthroscopic surgery of her shoulder.

“Failing to bear the excruciating pain and being in a condition where I was dependant on my family members to perform basic household activity, I became frustrated and depressed not knowing how to get rid of this pain. During our routine visit to Wockhardt Hospitals, I decided to go for a final round of check up and that’s when we consulted Dr. Keyur Buch who explained accurately what problem I was suffering from and offered the option of key-hole, minimally invasive surgery” said Mrs. Rina Gupta.

“Subacromial impingement with bursitis and frozen shoulder are very common problems amongst the Indian population of 35 to 65 years; women more than men. Currently, most patients have no choice but to go for the medicinal therapies only, which don’t help a considerable number of patients. These patients end up either suffering long term, or visiting several doctors, specialists and alternative therapists, causing them much suffering, confusion, waste of time and also unrewarding expense” said Dr. Keyur A. Buch, Consultant Upper Limb & Arthroscopic Surgeon, Wockhardt Hospitals.

The four muscles that raise and lower the arm (and their respective tendons) are collectively known as the rotator cuff. The function of the rotator cuff is to push the main part of the shoulder down and away from the acromion when the arm is elevated. The space between the acromion and the rotator cuff tendons is filled by the subacromial bursa. This bursa is a fluid filled sac that allows for smooth gliding of the rotator cuff under the acromion with overhead movements of the shoulder.

Subacromial impingement develops if either the rotator cuff is injured (strained) or some bone deformity (usually a bone spur) is present under the acromion. The rotator cuff and acromion will then rub against one another, causing a painful condition known as impingement. Each time the arm is raised there is a bit of rubbing on the tendons and the bursa between the tendons and the acromion, which may cause pain and inflammation.

“Mrs. Gupta’s problem wasn’t an uncommon one, however usage of medicinal therapy over a period of time had masked her real problem and worsened her condition and she came to us with sever shoulder pain and complete stiffness of her right arm and we decided to perform arthroscopic surgery with coblation technique to correct her condition” added Dr. Keyur Buch.

Arthroscopy (also called arthroscopic surgery) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure in which an examination and treatment of damage of the interior of a joint is performed using an arthroscope, a tiny camera inserted into the joint through a key hole incision. Arthroscopic procedures can be performed either to evaluate or to treat many orthopedic conditions including torn floating cartilage, muscle or tendon repair, ligament reconstruction, and treatment of shoulder dislocation, healing damaged cartilage etc.

The advantage of arthroscopy over traditional open surgery is that the joint does not have to be opened up fully. Instead a number of small incisions are made - one for the arthroscope and one or two for the surgical instruments. This reduces recovery time and may increase the rate of surgical success due to fewer traumas to the soft tissues. It is especially useful for athletes and also for the common populations, who frequently injure their shoulder & knee joints and require through diagnosis & proper treatment. There is also less scarring, because of the smaller incisions.

While arthroscopic surgeries are not new to India, Dr Keyur Buch is an orthoapedic surgeon with significant experience of using the most patient friendly new technology called Coblation technique at Wockhardt Hospitals. With the Coblation technique, Wockhardt Hospitals is able to offer treatment for various kinds of shoulder pains, frozen shoulder, torn muscles, tennis elbow, jumper’s knee, heel pains to name but a few conditions. The unique advantage of coblation technique is that the diseased tissues of various joints can be treated for the first time in India without any damage to the surroundings healthy tissues. It is definitely more tissue-friendly than laser or conventional radiofrequency or mechanical instruments.

“Today after the surgery my hand movement has improved to a great extent and I am able get my confidence and independence once again. With an extensive physiotherapy regime post surgery recovery has also been very speedy” said Mrs. Gupta.

The advantages of arthroscopic surgery of the joint with coblation technique are phenomenal – surgical pain is exceptionally reduced, post surgery recovery is very fast as compared to the traditional method, the hospital stay is reduced to a great extent, movement of the joint post surgery is almost back to normal and the patient can get back to his / her routine work within a very short span of time.
