BRJ ortho centre & MAK hospital performs complex ortho surgery

The city-based BRJ ortho centre and MAK hospital has performed a complex surgery on a person who sustained serious injuries in the recent flyover construction accident on Mettupalayam road in the district. He recovered and is undergoing treatment at the hospital.
Following the accident, M Julius V Kingston, a sub-contractor, was admitted to the hospital with multiple injuries, including a left knee dislocation with popliteal artery injury with vascular compromise, a scapula fracture, and a right shoulder fracture with tendon damage. 
A team led by Dr BRJ Satishkumar, chief orthopaedician, Dr Bhagavat Kumar, plastic surgeon and Dr Mujeeb Rahman anaesthetist attended to him immediately.
Subsequently, Kingston underwent a complex surgical procedure involving the stabilization of his left knee, vascular repair to address the arterial injury in his popliteal fossa, and exploration to ensure proper blood 
flow. 
The medical team removed a thrombus from the distal artery and performed anastomoses to restore circulation. Additionally, his shoulder fracture was addressed.
Since he has shown progress, he was transferred to a ward from ICU. He is currently recovering well under the continued care of the medical team.
"We are relieved and grateful that Kingston has responded positively to the treatment. Our team worked diligently to address his complex injuries, and we are committed to providing him with the best possible care throughout his recovery journey,” said Dr BRJ Satishkumar, chief of BRJ Ortho Centre and MAK Hospital.
