Case Studies
Endovascular Embolization saved the life of a neonate diagnosed with Vein of Galen Malformation (VOGM)
An emergency Endovascular Embolization was performed on a 48-hour-old baby for an extremely rare blood vessel abnormality in the brain known as Vein of Galen Malformation.
Mechanical Thrombectomy performed for Acute Ischemic Stroke saved the life of a 60-year-old patient.
Patient previously underwent Intravenous thrombolysis in another centre. Mechanical thrombectomy was done at Apollo Hospitals using stent retriever and multiple clots were removed from the occluded right MCA.
Complex surgery performed on a 51-year-old patient to treat pancreatic cancer with portal vein invasion.
After suffering for half a year and multiple failures of stenting, patient underwent the Whipple procedure along with replacing the damaged portal vein with an artificial graft (PTFE graft) to treat an advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
Baby with a novel mutation in blood (NF-E2) is the first in the world to undergo a successful bone marrow transplant.
A 17-month-old Filipino baby was detected with a rare NF-E2 mutation in blood at birth. The baby underwent multiple cycles of blood transfusion in Dubai, before a bone marrow transplant was successfully performed by Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals.
Carotid artery cannulation keeps blood to the brain flowing during aortic dissection repair.
A patient with Type A, Acute Aortic Dissection, underwent repair of Aortic Dissection with Ascending Aorta Replacement while preserving his Aortic valve. Cardio-pulmonary Bypass was established with Carotid Artery cannulation to maintain brain perfusion while blood flow to the whole body was stopped during the surgery.
Renal Denervation (RDN) therapy, a novel breakthrough in the management of resistant hypertension.
Renal Denervation (RDN) therapy uses radiofrequency ablation to burn the nerves in the renal arteries. This causes reduction in the nerve activity which further reduces blood pressure.
Robotic-Assisted PCI with Intravascular Lithotripsy was performed using CorPath© GRX Vascular Robotic System on a 55-year-old patient.
CorPath© GRX Vascular Robotic System was used in the treatment of a long segment densely calcified LCX [circumflex branch of the left coronary artery]. It helped with precise placement of the Shockwave balloon and stent.
83-year-old female patient from Kenya undergoes Watchman device implantation without open heart surgery.
LAA device closure (LAA-DC) is a relatively low risk procedure indicated in patients at high risk of thromboembolic complications, who are intolerant to anticoagulation or in whom anticoagulation is contraindicated.
HIS Bundle Pacing procedure, a newer technology in permanent pacemaker implantation for Bradyarrhythmias.
In HIS bundle pacing permanent pacemaker leads are placed at the HIS bundle instead of placing it in right ventricle. This direct stimulation of HIS bundle helps the right and left ventricles to be more synchronized.
A complex surgery performed on a 9-month-old baby to treat Neonatal Severe Hypoparathyroidism, a rare genetic condition
Neonatal severe hypoparathyroidism is a rare and potentially lethal condition that causes loss of regulation of calcium levels.
A 19-year-old girl operated for an extremely rare condition – OHVIRA syndrome
OHVIRA syndrome (Obstructed Hemivagina with Ipsilateral Renal Anomaly) is a rare condition with a double uterus, double cervix and double vagina. There was also only one kidney.
Robotic Assisted Minimally Invasive Hybrid Coronary Revascularisation (MIHCR)
Robotic assisted CABG is the least invasive method of minimally Invasive cardiac surgery. This procedure is suitable to treat patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease.
