Patient Experience
A 7-year-old girl from a remote village presented with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia missed during infancy. Dr. Saha performed thoracoscopic repair using innovative tissue reinforcement techniques. The child, whose family sold livestock to afford travel, recovered fully within three weeks and now participates in school sports.
An affluent 12-year-old boy with chronic appendicitis and extreme medical anxiety required Dr. Saha's unique distraction protocol during single-incision laparoscopic surgery. The procedure incorporated music therapy and parental presence in the OR, resulting in zero postoperative psychological trauma and discharge within 36 hours.
A newborn from an urban slum arrived with gastroschisis complicated by infection. Dr. Saha pioneered a modified staged closure technique using locally available materials adapted for resource-limited settings. After 6 weeks in NICU with community-funded support, the infant achieved complete intestinal function.
A 15-year-old tribal athlete with persistent undiagnosed abdominal pain was found to have mesenteric cyst torsion. Dr. Saha performed ultrasound-guided aspiration followed by elective resection during school holidays, enabling the patient to return to competitive sports within a month without missing academic term.
A 3-year-old adopted child from overseas with previously repaired esophageal atresia developed stricture. Dr. Saha created a personalized dilation schedule combining endoscopic procedures with speech therapy, addressing both anatomical and psychological feeding aversion over 4 months of multidisciplinary care.
A 9-year-old fisherman's son presented with rare splenogonadal fusion requiring orchidectomy. Dr. Saha preserved testicular tissue through microsurgical techniques and provided long-term hormonal monitoring through telemedicine consultations, maintaining normal puberty development despite geographical barriers.
A teenage girl from conservative family with massive ovarian cyst received single-port laparoscopic cystectomy with hidden umbilical incision to address both medical condition and cultural concerns about scarring. Dr. Saha coordinated with gynecologists for comprehensive adolescent healthcare education.
A malnourished 5-year-old with Hirschsprung's disease underwent transanal pull-through procedure after 3 months of nutritional optimization. Dr. Saha's team trained family members in bowel management techniques, resulting in 95% continence rate at 6-month follow-up despite limited sanitation facilities at home.
A 14-year-old with neglected trauma developed bile duct injury. Dr. Saha performed hepaticojejunostomy using magnifying loupes and developed a home-based drainage care protocol enabling early discharge. The patient returned to school within 3 weeks with community nurse support.
A 6-month-old from Bhutan with congenital lung lesion received thoracoscopic lobectomy after cross-border medical diplomacy coordination. Dr. Saha used harmonic scalpel for bloodless surgery and established international video consultation protocol for postoperative follow-up.
An 11-year-old street vendor with chronic osteomyelitis of rib required radical resection and chest wall reconstruction. Dr. Saha utilized biodegradable mesh technology and organized vocational training during recovery to prevent return to hazardous work environment.
A 2-year-old with giant sacrococcygeal teratoma underwent combined anterior-posterior approach surgery. Dr. Saha coordinated with vascular surgeons for preoperative embolization and with social workers for rehabilitation support, achieving complete resection with preserved neurological function.
A 8-year-old refugee child with complicated intussusception received hydrostatic reduction under ultrasound guidance instead of surgery. Dr. Saha's conservative approach avoided operation in a patient with limited access to postoperative care, with complete resolution confirmed by tele-radiology.
