Patient Experience
A 28-year-old professional gamer from Chennai presented with early-stage thoracic outlet syndrome due to prolonged poor posture during tournaments. Dr. Sairam Subramanian performed a minimally invasive first rib resection via transaxillary approach. The patient returned to competitive gaming in 6 weeks with ergonomic adjustments and physical therapy.
A 72-year-old retired fisherman from coastal Tamil Nadu arrived with a neglected popliteal artery aneurysm discovered during a village health camp. Dr. Subramanian performed emergency bypass grafting using the patient's own saphenous vein. The fisherman resumed light fishing activities after 4 months of monitored recovery.
An 18-year-old college student with undiagnosed Marfan syndrome developed an ascending aortic dissection during basketball practice. Dr. Subramanian performed emergency aortic root replacement with a mechanical valve. The patient now participates in controlled physical activities while managing anticoagulation therapy.
A 45-year-old construction site supervisor presented with work-related hypothenar hammer syndrome causing digital ischemia. Dr. Subramanian performed microvascular arterial reconstruction and organized workplace ergonomic assessments. The patient returned to modified duties within 8 weeks with protective gear.
A 33-year-old pregnant woman at 28 weeks gestation developed life-threatening iliac vein compression syndrome. Dr. Subramanian performed emergency venous stenting under ultrasound guidance to avoid radiation. Both mother and baby recovered completely, with delivery occurring successfully at term.
A 60-year-old diabetic temple priest with chronic foot ulcers developed calciphylaxis despite renal normal function. Dr. Subramanian implemented multimodal therapy including hyperbaric oxygen and surgical debridement. The patient maintained limb integrity through meticulous wound care protocols.
An 8-year-old schoolgirl from rural Tamil Nadu presented with congenital arteriovenous malformation causing progressive limb length discrepancy. Dr. Subramanian performed staged embolization procedures over 18 months, coordinating with orthopedic specialists for eventual epiphysiodesis.
A 52-year-old auto-rickshaw driver with chronic venous insufficiency developed lipodermatosclerosis and recurrent cellulitis. Dr. Subramanian performed endovenous laser ablation and coordinated social services for compression garment funding. The patient returned to work within 10 days.
A 67-year-old retired schoolteacher with failed peripheral angioplasty elsewhere presented with critical limb ischemia. Dr. Subramanian performed successful pedal artery bypass using an allograft, preserving the patient's ability to continue traditional Kolam drawing.
A 39-year-old IT professional developed Paget-Schroetter syndrome after intense weight training. Dr. Subramanian performed thrombolysis followed by thoracic outlet decompression, enabling the patient to resume modified exercise routines with physical therapy guidance.
A 25-year-old classical dancer with vascular compression syndromes affecting both renal arteries presented with refractory hypertension. Dr. Subramanian performed bilateral renal artery transposition procedures, allowing the patient to return to professional dancing without antihypertensive medications.
An 81-year-old grandmother with multiple comorbidities developed a ruptured splenic artery aneurysm. Dr. Subramanian performed emergency endovascular coil embolization rather than open surgery, resulting in significantly reduced recovery time and preserved independence.
A 30-year-old pregnant woman at 16 weeks gestation presented with spontaneous carotid artery dissection. Dr. Subramanian managed her conservatively with adjusted anticoagulation and close monitoring, delivering successful outcomes for both mother and baby at term.
A 55-year-old street food vendor with Buerger's disease despite smoking cessation presented with digital gangrene. Dr. Subramanian performed spinal cord stimulation for pain management and digital salvation, enabling the patient to continue modified food preparation activities.
