Successful Kidney Surgery Performed at PIMS Hospital, Umarda

Udaipur. A team of doctors at the Pacific Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) Hospital, Umarda, has successfully performed a complex kidney surgery on a 12-year-old girl.

Case Details

Pediatric Surgeon Dr. Atul Mishra informed that the girl, a resident of Udaipur, had been suffering from severe abdominal pain for several months. Despite undergoing treatment at multiple places, she found no relief. When brought to PIMS Hospital recently, medical investigations revealed multiple large stones in her right kidney. A particularly large stone had completely blocked the urinary passage, causing significant kidney damage.

Surgical Procedure

Dr. Mishra explained that a three-hour-long surgery was conducted, during which pyelolithotomy and nephrolithotomy were performed to remove all the stones while saving the kidney. Although such operations are usually carried out through endoscopic methods, this case required open surgery due to the patient’s young age, the critical condition of the kidney, and the presence of multiple stones lodged in different locations. Special care was also taken to ensure minimal external scarring. The girl has now fully recovered.

Team Effort

The surgery was supported by the Anesthesia Department doctors Dr. Kamlesh Rathore, Dr. Ganesh, Dr. Peenu, and Dr. Tyagi, along with Pediatric specialists Dr. Vivek Parashar, Dr. Rahul Khatri, and Dr. Shalu. Nursing staff including Arun and Ashok also played a vital role.

Free Treatment under Government Schemes

PIMS Chairman Ashish Agarwal stated that the entire treatment was provided free of cost under the Bhamashah, Ayushman, and Maa Yojana schemes. He further added that PIMS Hospital, Umarda, is fully equipped with advanced technology and modern facilities to handle even the most complex surgeries.
