Every newborn deserves a fighting chance, but some are born with critical conditions requiring immediate surgical intervention.
Our team of expert pediatric surgeons works tirelessly to restore hope and save lives. Here are some real-life cases where timely surgery made all the difference:
Case 1: Esophageal Atresia with Tracheoesophageal Fistula (EA/TEF)
- A newborn, unable to swallow even a drop of milk, diagnosed with EA/TEF
- Emergency surgery performed on day 1 of life to reconnect the esophagus and separate the abnormal connection
- Baby discharged healthy on breast feeds, now thriving.
Case 2: Intestinal Atresia
- A preterm baby with abdominal distension and bilious vomiting within hours of birth
- Diagnosed with jejunal atresia, requiring immediate surgery to restore bowel continuity
- A successful repair led to full recovery.
Case 3: Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH)
- A newborn struggling to breathe, diagnosed with Left CDH
- Urgent repair of the diaphragm after stabilisation in NICU, allowing the lungs to expand and function properly.
- Today, a happy, active child
Every surgery is a story of resilience and expertise—a testament to the impact of pediatric surgical care. Early recognition, prompt intervention, and skilled surgical management save lives.
