Rare and Complex life-saving Cardiac surgeries performed at Fortis Escorts, Faridabad exhibiting highest levels of clinical excellence

Fortis Escorts Hospital Faridabad conducted two challenging and complex cardio vascular and thoracic surgeries on a 23 year old patient suffering from a rare congenital heart disease called EBSTEIN ANAMOLY, and a 48 year old patient with one lung and suffering from one of the most dreaded of cardiac ailments- Type A Dissection of the Aorta. Dr. Neerav Bansal, Senior Consultant & HOD and Dr. Biju S Pillai, Senior Consultant- Department of Cardio Thoracic & Vascular Surgery, Fortis Escorts Hospital, Faridabad led the team to conduct the life-saving surgeries to bring the patients from critical conditions to normalcy.

23 year old Shashikant Mishra was afflicted with a rare congenital heart disease called EBSTEIN ANAMOLY with severe Valve regurgitation, hugely enlarged heart and heart dysfunction. This condition was congenital and caused due to improper development of one of the heart valves at birth, making it leak resulting in improper development of one of the pumping chambers of the heart. The patient’s heart was so enlarged that tests revealed a football like organ inside the chest rather than a heart in the normal size of a fist. The condition and symptoms had been ignored for years and it was only when the condition became a little critical that the patient was rushed to the hospital. It is noteworthy that many patients brought in at this stage cannot survive and it requires high levels of clinical excellence to treat such medical conditions.
