HYDERABAD: Two complex surgeries were conducted on a 38-year-old patient at the state-run Gandhi Hospital while in another case a private hospital performed a salvage surgery on a 36-year-old engineer’s hand. Both patients were discharged on Saturday.
A 38-year-old patient from Rasoolpura area in the city, Md Ibrahim, had severe pain due to a large lower pole renal tumour. Although these cases are generally taken up for radical nephrectomy (removal of entire kidney), in a complicated procedure doctors at the state-run Gandhi Hospital successfully did a nephron sparing surgery.
