Top Medical Specialties of Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital • Carotid Endarterectomy • Atrial Septal Defect • Premature Infant and Neonatal Surgery • In-Vitro Fertilization • Gallbladder Cancer • Posterior Sagittal Anorectoplasty Carotid Endarterectomy Atherosclerosis is becoming one of the most common cardiovascular conditions around the world. Carotid endarterectomy procedure has gained popularity among specialists in treating carotid artery disease where the fatty plaques are lodged in the lumen of the carotid artery blocking the passage of blood that is going to one of the major organs of the body - the brain. Carotid endarterectomy procedure is aimed at restoring this blood flow. This procedure is performed under local or general anesthesia and the surgeon makes an incision in the neck, at the site of the carotid artery, cuts through the artery, removes the clot or plaque, and repairs the incision on the carotid artery wall with sutures or graft patch. The intensive planning and immaculate execution by the experts of Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital result in the commendable success of carotid endarterectomy and smooth recovery of patients. Therefore, any patient who meets the protocol for this surgery goes through a trouble-free treatment while being in the safe hands of the experts. Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) Atrial septal defect (ASD), the third most common type of birth defect, is a congenital defect or a hole in the wall, called a septum, of the heart that separates the two upper chambers of the heart into the right and left atria. Small defects either close during infancy or early childhood or may be too small to cause any symptoms. Other cases of atrial septal defect may present with symptoms of fatigue, shortness of breath, or swelling in the legs which means that the defect needs to be addressed immediately. The risk factors that have been recognized to contribute to the development of this condition in a baby involve contracting Rubella infection in the first few months of pregnancy, diabetes, lupus, or drug, tobacco, and alcohol use by the mother during pregnancy. The complications that may develop if ASD is left untreated are heart failure, stroke, and arrhythmias. Once a patient presents with these symptoms and the defect in the atrial septum is detected, there are only surgical interventions that can be carried out to fix it. Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital not only provides the best tools and techniques for immediately testing and diagnosing a newborn with this defect but also has the best team of cardiothoracic and vascular surgeons who can successfully repair it. Based on the size of the hole and the site of the defect, open-heart surgery or cardiac catheterization is planned and carried out by experts to prevent the child from experiencing complications of this condition later in life. Premature Infant and Neonatal Surgery Over the years, the advances in this arm of pediatric surgery have led to solving many problems that previously increased the mortality rates of premature infants (babies born before the start of the 37th week of gestation) and neonates. Babies are being born with several different types of congenital defects and malformations that need to be addressed immediately by a life-saving surgical procedure. These surgical procedures are carried out once the baby is born and are typically meant to address the malformations which could not be treated while the baby was still inside the womb of the mother. Conditions like anorectal malformations, esophageal atresia, heart defects, omphalocele, and tracheoesophageal fistula are all treated by neonatal surgeries. At Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital, they not only have the best neonatologists, peri neonatologists, and pediatric surgeons who have mastered the art of performing surgeries on the neonates and premature infants but the hospital has an isolated unit, separate from the other units, that is specifically designed to meet the needs of these babies post-operatively. Keeping in mind the distinctive needs of these patients from the patients of other age groups, a separate controlled unit markedly improves the chances of survival of these babies after an urgent surgical procedure. In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) In-Vitro Fertilization is a type of assisted reproductive technology (ART) that helps a couple in conceiving. It is a series of procedures where the egg is retrieved from the ovaries of the female and the sperms from the male are used to fertilize it in a laboratory. These fertilized embryos are then implanted in the uterus of the female. This whole process is almost three weeks long and has been proven as the most effective form of ART. There are many reasons that IVF may be offered to a couple. Other than helping a couple with infertility, IVF may also be employed in cases where there is a risk of transferring genetic problems to the baby. Since the procedure is long and expensive and the success of it depends upon multiple factors, the experts at Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital take keen interest in the couples that reach them with the problems of infertility. Providing consultations and counseling to couples in all exclusivity, walking them through the process, informing them about the risks involved, and managing their expectations has all added to the success of IVF at Max Smart. Fertility specialists, as well as laboratory testing facilities, are provided to the couples at Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital to not only lessen the hassle of couples through this tedious process but also to ensure successful outcomes. Gallbladder Cancer Abnormal growth of cells in the gallbladder is termed as gallbladder cancer. It develops in the pear-shaped small sized organ that sits under the liver. Risk factors of this cancer include the female sex, increasing age, and a history of gallstones, and bile duct inflammation. Since the symptoms of this cancer are generalized loss of weight, abdominal pain, and later yellowing of the skin, this cancer usually goes unnoticed and undiagnosed until the late stages of cancer where the prognosis is generally poor. At Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital, they have ensured that every diagnostic testing facility is available under one roof and the patient immediately gets his CT Scan and MRI scan from the most sensitive and updated equipment available. Once a patient is diagnosed with gallbladder cancer, a multidisciplinary team consisting of radiologists, oncologists, and surgeons at Max Smart Hospital take over the case and construct a management plan that works specifically for that particular case. This schematic working by specialists has made sure that the patient receives the best possible care based on his stage and grade of cancer. Since there are several factors that affect the outcome in each case, the team is aimed at keeping the patient fully informed and taking the best course of action without making the patient go through unnecessary surgical procedures or diagnostic testing. Posterior Sagittal Anorectoplasty (PSARP) Posterior Sagittal Anorectoplasty is a surgical procedure performed in cases where children are born with birth defects of the anus and rectum and the lower end of their digestive system is not properly developed. This procedure is usually performed in the first year of the child’s life. In this procedure, the child is anesthetized using general anesthesia. The child is positioned face down on the operation table and an incision is made in the midline between the buttocks. The layers of skin and the underlying tissue are displaced and the rectum is located and mobilized. It is then surgically positioned within the anal sphincter muscles and an opening is created for the baby to pass a stool. At Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital, the specialists are aimed at improving the overall health and well-being of children born with birth defects. This procedure is successfully carried out in this hospital. To lessen the exposure of the internal body organs, the recent minimally invasive techniques are employed by well-trained pediatric surgeons. This has not only improved the overall outcome of the procedure but also minimized the recovery time for the baby at Max Smart Super Specialty Hospital.
