Rare Hernia Treated with Challenging Surgery at Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad

Mrs. Abha Verma is from Patna in Bihar. She had sustained a fracture in her waist in the girdle bone after an accident last year for which she had undergone surgery.

She started developing a lump after the surgery, which grew big and painful. Mrs. Verma had undergone knee replacement surgery by Dr. Vikram Shah six years back and decided to consult him at Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad when her pain aggravated.

Dr. Shah advised her to consult Dr. Nilesh Nimavat, Senior General & Laparoscopic Surgeon at Shalby. Her investigations revealed that she had developed a huge hernia of 7 x 3 cm near her waist. A hernia rarely develops near the waist.

This was a complex and challenging hernia to operate and Dr. Nimavat used a sandwich technique of surgery for this using meshplasty. This hernia surgery is very rare and as per data, only about 60-70 such surgeries have been performed across the world till now.

It will also be used as reference material for other surgeons and medical students. After a successful surgery, Mrs. Verma is feeling very well now. As she shares her experience, she is full of appreciation for Dr. Nimavat and Shalby Hospitals Ahmedabad for the excellent treatment and care she received.
