HMC surgeons perform complex brain surgery on 10-year-old from Bahrain

Toward the end of last week a group of specialists at Hamad Medical Corporation's (HMC) Hamad General Hospital played out a perplexing mind medical procedure on a ten-year-old young lady from Bahrain. The consummation of the confounded medical procedure is huge as it denotes the first run through the activity has been performed on a pediatric patient utilizing Hamad General Hospital's half and half working room. 

Dr Siraj Belkhair, Interim Head of the Neurosurgery Department at Hamad General Hospital, said the half breed working room empowers continuous route and prompt assessment of a method's prosperity, the two of which improve patient consideration and wellbeing results. 

"Our patient had encountered a cerebrum seep in November 2017 because of an inherent vascular condition in the mind that is normally analyzed after it causes draining or seizure. She was at first treated with endovascular embolization, which is a system that includes putting a catheter through the crotch to achieve the mind to infuse a paste like material that will impede anomalous accumulations of veins that causes dying," clarified Dr Belkhair. 

 

"Interventionists from the Endovascular Department infused stick material to close the arteriovenous distortion in her mind and to anticipate further cerebrum dying, yet on follow-up angiogram, it was found that the arteriovenous deformity had begun to open again and it was resolved there was a danger of re-seeping in her mind. We counseled with her folks and the choice was made to evacuate the arteriovenous mutation," included Dr Belkhair. 

Dr Belkhair, who is additionally the Program Director of HMC's Neurosurgery Training Program, said the patient had a condition called cerebral arteriovenous mutation (AVM), which causes a strange association between the courses and veins in the cerebrum.

"Customarily, patients experiencing this strategy are moved from the working space to the emergency unit then to a MRI or angiography suite to decide if a technique was effective. Having prepared access to the most noteworthy quality imaging hardware during medical procedure diminishes the requirement for follow-up medical procedures and decreases the measure of time the patient is under anesthesia, which abbreviates the patient's recuperation time frame and the general time spent in the clinic," said Dr Belkhair. 

"These means were spared by having the cross breed working room. We had the option to complete an angiogram while we were resecting arteriovenous contortion to ensure that we had finished the re-segmenting of the arteriovenous abnormality. The medical procedure was done in three hours and the youngster was released home following two days. Today she is a totally sound ten-year-old," included Dr Belkhair. 

Since opening in December 2016, around 19 patients have profited by Hamad General Hospital's half breed working room office. 

Dr. Belkhair said the utilization of the half breed working space for pediatric patients is critical as it implies youngsters are investing less energy under anesthesia and their introduction to radiation for medicines is limited, which all means more secure consideration and a superior encounter for patients and their families.
