Kauvery Hospital doctors save limb of 29-year-old Bangladeshi woman

According to an ANI report, Upon visiting Kauvery Hospital Vadapalani, she underwent thorough investigations, leading to a diagnosis of aggressive form of Giant Cell Tumor (GCT) in her right distal femur with pathological fracture. Dr Ravi Kumar Kirubanandan, Orthopaedic Surgeon and his expert team of doctors identified limb preservation as the optimal solution for her condition.

The patient underwent limb preservation surgery, where her right distal femur was replaced. This innovative approach not only eradicated the tumor but also restored her mobility and hope. Following the successful surgery, the young woman regained her ability to walk, reclaiming her life from the clutches of despair.

The significance of limb preservation goes beyond physical function. For this young woman, it meant escaping the grip of depression and embracing a future filled with possibilities. Without her limb and in turn lack of mobility, she would have also faced increased risks of osteoporosis and continued psychological distress, reports news agency ANI.

This success story highlights the importance of empathy-driven healthcare and the transformative impact of limb preservation surgery. At Kauvery Hospital Vadapalani, every patient is treated with compassion and respect, ensuring not just medical recovery, but a return to a fulfilling life.
