Vaidam Health organizes various medical camps in different countries throughout the year. One such medical camp was organized in Fiji in 2022, where the parents of Shivaan consulted orthopedic experts from India. Shivaan Lingam is a 2-year-old boy born with a congenital bone defect. He had pain and a right lower limb deformity and could not put weight on the affected leg. The experts explained to them the disorder and the treatment plan.
The parents were in constant touch with us and finally decided to come to India for the surgery. They consulted Dr. Ishwar Bohra, a renowned Orthopedic Surgeon with over two decades of experience. On thorough evaluation, the doctor diagnosed the child with complete fibular hemimelia, ankle varsus, and tibial deformity. A fibular anlage excision with corrective osteotomy of tibia and soft tissue alignment surgery was planned for him.
The surgery was successfully performed at BLK Super Specialty Hospital, New Delhi. There were no complications post-surgery, and the patient was discharged within 5 days in stable condition.
The family stayed in India for about one month. Our team handled all their needs, from medical visas, travel arrangements, and doctor’s consultations to hospital and hotel stays. They thanked us for a comfortable stay throughout and said they would recommend us to anyone in need of medical treatment abroad.
We wish a speedy recovery to Shivaan so that he enjoys the rest of his life to the fullest.
