Uttar Pradesh: In a first, SSL Hospital uses 4000 method in paediatric surgery

Varanasi: Sir Sunderlal Hospital, Banaras Hindu University, has started paediatric surgery using 4K method. This is most advanced and latest way of carrying out laparoscopic surgeries. A successful surgery was conducted recently in the paediatric Surgery Department using this method.

Head of the department of paediatric Surgery, Dr Vaibhav Pandey, who performed the procedure, said that a 10-year-old local boy had developed pus in his stomach six weeks ago due to a burst appendix. At that time, he was treated with medicines, however, removal of appendix is the only remedy for complete recovery of the patient faced with such a condition. The boy underwent surgery for which the 4K method was used. This was for the first time this method was used in Sir Sunderlal Hospital for such a surgery. It can usually cost up to Rs 50 thousand. However, in BHU, by receiving all the medication free of cost, the whole process could be completed in Rs. 5000 only.

He said that BHU’s paediatric surgery department has been doing complicated surgeries for children through binoculars, but with the advent of the 4K facility, all these surgeries can be done in a much easier and efficient way. He said that the 4K method makes it easier for doctors to have a closer and clearer look at the internal organs of children and perform surgeries. The facility will also help in carrying out even more complex operations and without heavy expenditure.
