In a very critical operation, a team of doctors at the Assam Medical College and Hospital (AMCH) on Wednesday removed an ovarian tumour weighing 30 kg from a 16-year-old girl, a senior medical practitioner of the establishment said. AMCH Principal Sanjiv Kakati said that the girl, from Panitola in Golaghat district, was admitted to the hospital around a week back and was in a very critical condition due to intubation difficulties at the first attempt. "Later, our senior doctor Karuna Das successfully resuscitated and intubated her after a technically challenging manoeuvre. "It was densely adherent and had a large fluid mass making the girl's daily life very difficult. She had to undergo a life-saving emergency operation," Kakati said.More Related News
