Doctors removed 2.7 kg tumour from man's liver at Miot hospitals.
Chennai: S. Venkatesan has underwent the surgery at Miot hospitals a week ago to get a 20x15cm tumour removed from his liver.
“Taking the tumour head-on would not work in his case and, hence, we approached it from behind. We successfully removed the 2.7 kg tumour from Venkatesan’s liver and now he has recovered and is ready for discharge,” said Dr Paari Vijayaragavan, who operated on the patient.
Similar was the case of R. Arumugam from Nagercoil who also underwent surgery at the hospital, said Dr Ajithab Srivatsava. Treating liver tumours is done with hi-tech and a specialised team is dedicated for it, pointed out Dr P.V.A. Mohandas, chairman of Miot hospitals.
