4 joint replacements at once help woman walk again at AIIMS-Bhubaneswar
Deccan ChronicleBhubaneswar: Doctors at AIIMS-Bhubaneswar performed a critical surgery to replace four joints of a 37-year-old woman, helping her walk again without any support, officials said on Monday. Stating that four joint replacements in one setting incur numerous challenges, doctors said that because of her young age, no comorbidities and perfect team management, the surgery was successful. Earlier, a patient from Odisha underwent surgery at AIIMS-Delhi in which all four joint replacements were done in one setting, AIIMS-Bhubaneswar executive director Dr Ashutosh Biswas said. It is essential to note that multiple joint replacements at the same setting is required in such cases as one or two replacements cannot let the patient walk, said medical superintendent Dr Dillip Parida.
