India's First Scar-Less Surgery Performed Successfully by Fortis Escorts Heart Institute


 

  • Fortis Escorts Heart Institute in Delhi has performed the first scar-less surgery in India.
  • The surgery was performed on Toshikinov Doniyar, an 18-year-old boy from Uzbekistan, who was suffering from a congenital heart disease.
  • He was suffering a pain on the left chest for more than two years and was diagnosed with atrial septal defect (a hole in the wall seperating the upper two chambers of the heart). 
  • The scar-less surgery involves a minor incsion, which is almost invisible, on the fold of the areole on the patient's chest.
  • According to Dr.Yugal Mishra, Director of Cardiovascular Surgery at Fortis Escorts Heart Institute, many challenges are faced during a minimal invasive surgery like putting heart pots, clearly seeing the area of treatment and adopting peripheral bypass. 
  • Doniyor was discharged from the hospital and is recovering well now.
