Index Super Speciality Hospital Successfully Treats 16-Year-Old with Advanced 20-Minute Minimally Invasive Heart Procedure
NEWS & EVENTS Index Super Speciality Hospital Successfully Treats 16-Year-Old with Advanced 20-Minute Minimally Invasive Heart Procedure Index Super Speciality Hospital achieved another milestone in advanced cardiac care by successfully treating a 16-year-old patient suffering from a 27 mm congenital heart defect (Atrial Septal Defect – ASD) through a highly advanced minimally invasive interventional cardiology procedure completed in just 20 minutes. The patient, belonging to a farmer’s family from a village near Khandwa, had been experiencing severe fatigue, breathlessness, weakness, palpitations, and recurrent fainting episodes for the past several months. Due to financial constraints, the family was unable to pursue timely treatment until they reached Index Super Speciality Hospital, where the procedure was performed completely free of cost under the Ayushman Bharat Scheme. The procedure was successfully performed under the expert supervision of Dr. Sudeep Verma, who utilized cutting-edge catheter-based device closure technology as an alternative to conventional open-heart surgery. Through vascular access via the leg, a specialized ASD closure device and septal occluder were precisely deployed to seal the defect, eliminating the need for major surgical incision. This modern intervention ensured minimal trauma, significantly reduced risk of infection, shorter hospital stay, and faster post-procedure recovery. Dr. Verma emphasized that early diagnosis and timely intervention are critical, as untreated ASD can lead to serious complications affecting both cardiac and pulmonary function. The patient is recovering remarkably well and has now been given the opportunity to lead a healthy and active life. Expressing gratitude, the patient’s family thanked the hospital management and medical team for restoring hope during a difficult time. Chairman Suresh Singh Bhadoria, Vice Chairman Mayankraj Singh Bhadoria, Medical Director Dr. Pawan Bambani, and Operation Manager Geetanjali Khedekar congratulated the cardiology and pediatric teams for this outstanding achievement, reaffirming the institution’s commitment to delivering world-class, accessible, and affordable healthcare services to every section of society.

Rare Cancer Successfully Removed at Index Super Speciality Hospital in High-Risk Six-Hour Surgery
NEWS & EVENTS Rare Cancer Successfully Removed at Index Super Speciality Hospital in High-Risk Six-Hour Surgery Index Super Speciality Hospital marked a remarkable medical achievement by successfully performing a rare and highly complex cancer surgery on a 50-year-old patient, offering him a new lease on life. The patient had been suffering for nearly two years from a rapidly growing massive chest tumor. Due to financial constraints, he was unable to seek timely treatment, which allowed the cancer to spread to the lungs, diaphragm, liver, and kidney. His condition had become so critical that four major hospitals had declined surgery. Eventually, he approached Index Super Speciality Hospital, where a team of experienced specialists decided to undertake the challenging procedure. According to Dr. Amit Katlana, Head of the Department of Surgery, the patient was diagnosed with sarcoma, a rare cancer that develops in soft tissues and muscles and gradually invades surrounding organs. Detailed investigations revealed that the tumor had reached an extraordinary size of nearly 45 centimeters in length and 30 centimeters in width. During the highly demanding six-hour surgery, doctors had to open a large portion of the chest, remove three affected ribs, reconstruct a major section of the diaphragm, and rebuild the chest wall using a specialized medical mesh. The operation was particularly critical as the patient had to be maintained under anesthesia supported by only one lung, making the procedure technically complex and extremely high-risk. The entire treatment was provided free of cost under the Ayushman Bharat Yojana. Such surgeries usually involve expenses of several lakhs, while the special medical mesh alone costs nearly ₹60,000. However, the complete treatment was covered under the scheme, ensuring the patient received world-class care without financial burden. Following the successful surgery, the patient is now stable and recovering rapidly. This outstanding success reflects the advanced medical expertise, cutting-edge infrastructure, and patient-centered commitment of Index Super Speciality Hospital in delivering exceptional healthcare services.

NEWS & EVENTS Successful Removal of 6.3 kg Massive Ovarian Tumor at Index Super Speciality Hospital Index Super Speciality Hospital, Indore, achieved a remarkable medical milestone by successfully performing a complex surgery to remove a massive ovarian tumor from a 36-year-old female patient, giving her a new lease on life. The tumor, weighing approximately 6.3 kilograms and comparable in size to a newborn baby, was exerting pressure on the patient’s intestines, causing severe discomfort and pain. The intricate surgery lasted nearly three hours and was led by senior gynecologist Dr. Deepika Verma. The core surgical team included Dr. Namrata Shrivastava and Dr. Nazia Noor, along with dedicated support from other team members and the anesthesia experts, ensuring a safe and successful outcome. The patient, a resident of Bagli, had been suffering from abnormal menstrual cycles for the past six months. Over the last two months, she experienced persistent abdominal swelling, with severe pain developing in the past month. Detailed investigations revealed a large ovarian tumor measuring approximately 27 centimeters, along with two fibroids in the uterus measuring 6 cm and 3.1 cm, further complicating the condition. Considering the severity, the medical team promptly decided to proceed with surgery. The tumor was carefully removed intact, without rupture, and the uterus was also safely removed as required. The excised tumor has been sent for histopathological examination. Currently, the patient is stable and recovering well. According to medical experts, an ovarian tumor is an abnormal growth in the ovary that can be either benign or malignant. Factors such as hormonal imbalance, recurrent ovarian cysts, and conditions like PCOD may contribute to its development. Common symptoms include abdominal swelling, pelvic pain, frequent urination, and changes in menstrual patterns. Doctors emphasize that symptoms like persistent bloating for more than 2–3 weeks, continuous or worsening abdominal pain, sudden changes in periods, or a noticeable lump should never be ignored. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are crucial to prevent serious complications.

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..
