Treated by Dr. Kamran Ali , Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket

Mar 4, 2024

Mr. S N Suneshwar had a chest injury a couple of months back, which fractured his left ribs. Initial treatment could not improve his condition but worsened it further. It caused fatigue and extreme breathlessness. Mr. Suneshwar consulted Dr. Kamran Ali, Principal Consultant, Thoracic Surgery, Lung Transplant, Max Smart Hospital, Saket, Delhi, India, who detected blood clots constricting the lungs. It is a condition called Haemothorax. Treatment was planned around removing the accumulation of blood around the lungs using a process called VATS evaluation of haemothorax and decortication. The patient was promptly prepared for surgery, which was uneventful. Post-surgery, Mr. Suneshwar had a remarkable recovery and was discharged within a week.
