Hyderabad: The orthopaedic doctors at Amor Hospitals, Kukatpally have successfully conducted a rare surgery on a 35-year-old man, who has a tear in his knee ligament following a bike accident.
The patient met with an accident and tore his ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament), which gives stability to the knee, the hospital said in a release here on Wednesday.
Imaging tests revealed that he had an ACL tear and there was a need to conduct surgery.
In such cases, usually, only reconstruction is done. We make a tunnel in the thigh bone and leg bone and make a graft., However, in this case, we did both repair and reconstruction. That means, we have kept the native ligament intact and repaired it, said senior Orthopaedic surgeon Dr VS Abilash Kumar.
We took healthy ligaments from other places and gave support to the damaged ones," the surgeon said.
No medical journal has published a single article about this kind of method. This is one of its kind. We have to do more research on this method of repair and research, then give an article to the medical journals", Dr Abhilash added.
Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that doctors at the Lucknow-based Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS) had achieved a new milestone by performing a life-saving rigid bronchoscopic removal of a bullet from the airway wall of a 20-year-old man. According to doctors, a 20-year-old man with an alleged gunshot injury was brought and admitted to the SGPGIMS in critical condition.
The bullet had entered from the lower back and entered the chest and was lodged within the airway wall. Because of this, air leaked out into the surrounding area leading to difficulty in breathing.
