Inspiring Recovery: Sanar International Hospitals Gives New Lease of Life to Iraqi Youth with Lost Ability to Speak and Breathe
Ali, a 23-year-old from Iraq, had almost given up hope after enduring seven unsuccessful surgeries and being abandoned by a number of hospitals in both Iraq and India. His ordeal began when he suffered a severe accident in his home country, resulting in the loss of his ability to speak and breathe normally. Despite undergoing multiple surgeries over a span of more than three years, Ali’s airway continued to block, leaving him desperate for a solution.
Sanar International Hospitals Provides Lasting Cure
Fortunately, Ali’s path crossed with Sanar International Hospitals, a beacon of hope in his journey to recovery. After undergoing thorough tests and investigations, he was diagnosed with “Grade-4 Complete Subglottic Stenosis,” a condition that severely obstructed his airway. Dr. Kunal Nigam, Head of Department & Consultant, ENT, Cochlear Implant and Voice Disorders, performed a groundbreaking surgery utilizing Coblation-assisted Subglottic Stenosis with Serial Balloon Dilatation, followed by T-Tube Montgomery Stent placement. The procedure successfully opened his narrowed subglottic airway, allowing Ali to speak and breathe effortlessly through his mouth and nose.
Triumph of Resilience and Collaboration
Dr. Kunal Nigam praised Ali’s bravery and perseverance throughout his arduous journey. The successful outcome of the surgery was a testament to the combined efforts of the medical team, including Dr. Sabih Ahmed, HOD and Senior Consultant of Anaesthesia, and Dr. Aditi Agrawal, HOD and Senior Consultant of Radiology and Imaging.
