A man’s hoarse voice, an unusual symptom, led doctors at Kailash Hospital in Noida to discover a severe heart condition. A complex 15-hour surgery saved the man’s life after the diagnosis revealed an aortic aneurysm and blocked arteries.

Unusual Symptom Uncovers Hidden Danger

Bishan Singh Bisht, the patient, arrived at Kailash Hospital with a hoarse voice as his primary complaint. After a series of tests, doctors discovered that an orange-sized aortic aneurysm had developed in the main artery of his body. According to Dr. Satish Mathew, chief cardiothoracic and vascular surgeon, this condition could have been life-threatening if not addressed.

Further coronary angiogram tests revealed that two of Bisht’s major heart arteries were also blocked, which increased his risk of a heart attack. This alarming discovery made the surgery even more critical.

A Life-Saving, Three-Stage Surgery

In response to the grave situation, Dr. Mathew and his team at Kailash Hospital planned a three-stage operation. The surgical team performed an off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) to restore blood flow to the heart. They also created an artificial blood supply to the brain and reinforced the aorta with a Valiant Captiva endograft to ensure proper blood flow to the lower body.

The entire surgery took 15 hours to complete. “It was a complex and delicate operation,” Dr. Mathew stated. “But it was necessary to save the patient’s life.”

Post-Surgery Recovery and Discharge

After the successful procedure, Bisht remained under observation for seven days at the hospital. Following this period, doctors examined him thoroughly and found his recovery progressing well. He was later discharged in stable condition.

Dr. Mathew also noted that the hospital has conducted over 5,000 heart and vascular surgeries in the last two decades, showcasing their expertise in handling such complex cases.
