64-yr-old treated for 3 life-threatening conditions in one stay

A 64-year-old man with three life-threatening conditions was successfully treated at Fortis Escorts Hospital, Okhla, in a single hospital stay. Doctors repaired his damaged aortic valve and torn main artery, then removed a cancerous kidney tumour using robot-assisted surgery. The complex multidisciplinary procedure was reported as a world-first in medical literature, and he recovered well.
