KIMS doctors treated patient with bronchoscopy without any surgery
The air we breathe through the nose goes into the lungs through the respiratory tract. Even if there is any small rice grain in that respiratory tract, it will be a great difficulty and inconvenience. What would be the situation if a particle occupied almost the entire respiratory tract?
A 58-year-old patient from Nizamabad, with no comorbidities, and no history of smoking suffered from severe cough, fatigue, and fever due to a massive tumor in the respiratory tract and came to KIMS Hospital in Hyderabad on a ventilator.
KIMS doctors treated him by removing such a large tumor, which normally had to be surgically removed, in an alternative manner.
In this video, Dr Kishan Srikanth Juvva, a pulmonologist at KIMS Hospital talks about this case history, prognosis, challenges faced during surgery.
