A courageous 3-Year-Old brave heart gets a new lease of life at Medica Superspecialty Hospital

A courageous 3-Year-Old brave heart gets a new lease of life at Medica Superspecialty Hospital

New Delhi, April 28th, 2022: Medica Group of Hospitals, the largest private hospital chain in Eastern India, at its flagship facility Medica Superspecialty Hospital in Kolkata conducted a rare and critical operation on a 3-year-old girl child with a very uncommon birth-related heart disease. The team of experienced doctors from departments of pediatric and congenital heart disease joined hands together for this complex and exceptional case. Under the supervision of Dr. Anil Kumar Singhi, Senior Consultant and Head, Department of Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease, Medica Superspecialty Hospital, the child survived the ordeal which turned out to be, one of the most unexpected recoveries in recent time.In 2019, while the Bhattacharjee family from Hooghly were cherishing the moment of their first child, they were traumatized to learn that their child had an unusual heartbeat which could be the only sign that she has PDA (Patent ductus arteriosus - a heart problem that occurs soon after birth in some babies, which usually goes away after 72 hours) or a hole in the heart. After a month of frequent checkups in the hospital, the sound did not stop.  Post consultation with their family pediatrician, the child was referred to Dr. Anil Singhi at Medica Superspecialty Hospital. Without any further delay, the child was rushed to Medica for treatment. After a thorough diagnosis by the Medica team of doctors, it was learned that the child had an abnormal connection between the two heart chambers. An unusually long tunnel was abruptly twisted backward and linked to the right atrium (the upper right chamber of the heart that receives polluted blood from the body) from the a regular basis for checkups, and we are really satisfied with the love and care that are given to our daughter. When our child was admitted to Medica, she did not have any symptoms, but her left ventricle was larger due to the abnormal tunnel. In just 2 weeks’ time, her ventricle has already returned to its normal size which proves that she has been healing quickly now. Our hearts are filled with enormous joy after seeing our daughter’s smile and laugh once again."

Having set benchmarks in patient care, Medica Superspecialty Hospital, which has a world-class comprehensive department for heart failure, at the facility, in Kolkata, is widely known for its excellence in cardiac care has now added another feather to its cap, after successfully conducting the high-risk operation with extensive options for treatment and management of the congenital cardiac disease.
