Successful Surgery of a Rare Half-Kilogram
NEWS & EVENTS Successful Surgery of a Rare Half-Kilogram Cystic Hygroma at Index Super Speciality Hospital Index Super Speciality Hospital, Indore, has once again demonstrated its excellence in advanced medical care by successfully treating an extremely rare and complex case of cystic hygroma. The ENT, Head and Neck Surgery Department performed a highly challenging surgery on a 39-year-old female patient diagnosed with a massive right-sided cystic hygroma. This condition is exceptionally rare, affecting approximately one in 12,000 people, and is most commonly seen in children, with adult cases being among the rarest worldwide. The patient had previously undergone surgery for the same condition in 2019 at a government hospital in Indore, and the disease had reappeared as a recurrence. The three-hour-long surgery was successfully led by Dr. Naveen Agrawal, along with Dr. Chhavi Agrawal, Dr. Anand Sharma, and Dr. Ajinkya Raverkar, reflecting remarkable teamwork and surgical expertise. Pre-operative MRI investigations revealed a huge multiloculated cystic lesion measuring 17 × 8 × 8 centimeters and weighing nearly half a kilogram, located in the right carotid space. The mass was displacing the right carotid artery and internal jugular vein in opposite directions, making the procedure extremely high-risk. Due to the previous surgery, dense fibrosis bands were present, further increasing the complexity of the operation. Despite these challenges, the surgical team performed meticulous and delicate dissection, carefully preserving all vital blood vessels and surrounding structures. Using advanced microsurgical techniques, the fibrosis bands were safely released, and the entire cyst was successfully removed in one piece (in toto). The removal of such a large mass from a sensitive neck region highlights the hospital’s advanced infrastructure and the surgeons’ exceptional precision. Cystic hygroma is a rare congenital disorder caused by abnormal development of the lymphatic system. It most commonly affects the head and neck region, accounting for nearly 60–70% of cases, while the remaining cases may involve the chest, abdomen, limbs, or axilla. If left untreated, the swelling gradually increases in size, potentially leading to loss of function of the affected area, discoloration, pain, and recurrent infections. Adult cases are particularly rare and often pose significant diagnostic and surgical challenges. The successful management of this complex case at Index Super Speciality Hospital stands as a testament to its commitment to delivering world-class, patient-centric healthcare through expertise, technology, and compassion..

Major Achievement of Index
NEWS & EVENTS Major Achievement of Index Super Speciality Hospital: Successful Complex Revision Hip Replacement Surgery Index Super Speciality Hospital has achieved a remarkable milestone by successfully performing an extremely challenging revision hip replacement surgery. The patient, a labourer from Dewas district, had undergone a primary hip replacement two years ago in another hospital. However, after falling from a roof, the implant broke again, leaving him completely unable to walk or work. Private hospitals had estimated the cost of this complex revision surgery at around ₹10–12 lakh, an amount far beyond the patient’s capacity. In this critical situation, the expert team at Index Hospital provided complete treatment free of cost under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, giving the patient a new lease on life. The surgery was performed under the leadership of Joint Replacement Surgeon Retd. Lt. Col. Dr. Ajay Singh Thakur, with a specialised implant sourced from Mumbai for this highly complex procedure. The dedicated team—Dr. Raunak Dagliya, Dr. Zainul, Dr. Avdhesh Bhadoriya, Dr. Aishwarya Mahajan and Dr. Vinay Dubey—played a vital role in ensuring the surgery’s success. This revision procedure, considered extremely challenging even for senior orthopedic experts, often costs more than ₹1 crore in countries like the United States. Index Hospital not only completed the surgery successfully but did so entirely free of cost. Index Group Chairman Shri Suresh Singh Bhadoria and Vice Chairman Mayankraj Singh Bhadoria praised the medical team, calling this achievement a proud moment for the institution. This successful surgery has restored the patient’s ability to walk normally after one-and-a-half months of immobility and has set a new clinical benchmark for postgraduate medical students. The need for revision joint replacement surgeries in India is rapidly increasing as older implants begin to loosen or wear out. These procedures require advanced skills, precision, and specialised training. Index Super Speciality Hospital is also preparing to introduce robotic joint replacement surgeries, further elevating the standard of orthopedic care. Patients with hip or joint implants are advised to avoid sitting on the floor with folded legs, refrain from excessive exercise, and maintain regular follow-ups to ensure implant longevity and achieve the best possible outcomes.

NEWS & EVENTS Index Super Speciality Hospital Performs Rare and Complex 10.8 kg Tumor Removal with Exceptional Success Index Super Speciality Hospital, Indore, has achieved a significant clinical milestone with the successful surgical removal of a 10.8-kilogram abdominal tumor from a 41-year-old female patient from Dewas. The patient had endured progressive abdominal distension and pain for over eighteen months, prompting detailed evaluations that revealed an unusually large 41-centimeter tumor. Tumors of this magnitude are exceedingly rare, occurring in only 5 to 10 percent of cases, and often pose substantial diagnostic and surgical challenges. This accomplishment further elevates Index Super Speciality Hospital’s standing as a premier center for advanced medical care in Madhya Pradesh, recognized for delivering reliable, ethical, and high-quality healthcare services. The complex procedure was led by Dr. Ritika Malviya, Consultant Gynecologist, supported by an experienced team including Dr. Shilpi, Dr. Shambhavi, Dr. Vaishali, and Dr. Sonali. According to Dr. Malviya, such large tumors carry a heightened risk of serious complications such as ovarian torsion, pseudomyxoma peritonei, and bowel obstruction—conditions that can rapidly escalate into life-threatening emergencies. Due to the significant pressure exerted on surrounding organs, the surgical team employed meticulous planning, multidisciplinary coordination, and advanced operative techniques. Many healthcare facilities had previously declined the surgery owing to its high-risk nature; however, Index Super Speciality Hospital’s commitment to patient care, combined with its cutting-edge infrastructure and expert clinical team, enabled the safe and efficient completion of the two-hour operation. Postoperative assessments confirmed the absence of anticipated complications, markedly improving the patient’s recovery prospects.
