[ad_1] AIIMS Hospital in Delhi has achieved a major achievement in the field of medical science. The Pediatric Surgery Department team successfully carried out the Total Laparoscopic Whipple Operation on an 11 -year -old girl. This surgery is the first surgery in the world to perform a full laparoscopic manner, which was carried out under the leadership of Professor Dr. Anjan Kumar Dua.What is the matter?The girl hails from Garhwa district of Jharkhand and was complaining of stomach pain for a long time. After examination, doctors found that he/she had a rare tumor called solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasm (spen), which occurs in the pancreas. A complex whipped surgery was needed to remove this tumor, with renovation of the pancreas and parts of the digestive system.How did surgery occur?Traditionally, this surgery makes a large incision in the stomach, causing pain and large scars. But the AIIMS team performed this operation through only 4 small holes (2 sixes 5 mm and 2 holes 10 mm). This surgery, which lasted for 8.5 hours, used only 80 ml blood. The girl saw less pain, low hospital stagnation and better cosmetic results.What was the challengePro. Anjan Dhu said that this surgery is considered technically the most complex and it is even more challenging to do it in a laparoscopic manner. Because the pancreas is very inside in the stomach, has to go very deep, where there are many types of pancreas, the girl's head of pancreas was the disease. Our experience and dedication made it successful. he/she said that if surgery was done by opening the stomach, then an incision of about 10 to 12 cm would have been made. The scar could remain after surgery. The girl would have a cosmetic problem. But in this surgery, only 4 holes made it successful.Why this is the first case of this procedureDoctor Anjan said that this type in the pancreas cancer The tumor is in the youth, the little girl has a low risk. Therefore, for this surgery, cases are less worldwide and there is less chance of surgery. However, the doctor said that in young adults than men, this disease is 10 times more in women, which is the only better treatment surgery. The girl's condition is now stable and she is expected to return to school and her normal life soon. Doctors said that regular monitoring will now be continued after removing the tumor completely.What is the opinion of doctors in this casePro. Bikash Ranjan Rai (Department of Anesthesia) Said that there was no problem of any anesthetic complexity or bleeding during the operation, which reflects the preparation of our team. Pro. Sandeep Aggarwal (HOD, Pediatric Surgery) Said that this success not only reflects the medical exploration of AIIMS, but also shows the possibilities of advanced and less painful treatment for children.What is the plan ahead?Dr. Anjan said that the girl was underwent surgery on February 27 and she was discharged from the hospital on the 10th day. After surgery we have done a biopsy, the body has been completely removed from the body, now it needs neither chemothery nor radiation. [ad_2]
