Doctors at Paras Global Hospital Darbhanga, leading multi super specialty hospital of Mithila, successfully conducted a gall bladder surgery on a 23 yr old girl to remove 103 stones. The complex surgery was performed through the laparoscopic procedure.

The path breaking surgical procedure was performed by Dr AK Jha, Consultant General and Laparoscopic Surgery, Paras Global Hospital Darbhanga.

Dr Jha highlighted that when the patient, Priyanka, arrived in the hospital, she was writhing in pain. When investigations were conducted it was found that she has 103 stones in her gall bladder due to which she was suffering from so much pain. The latest technology and diagnostic tools were able to detect the underlying issue of the patient fast so that timely treatment and management support could be provided to the patient.

Dr Jha further shared that Priyanka was initially reluctant to go for an operation as she thought that it will be a painful experience but when she was told that the operation will be done through laparoscopic method she readily agreed for the operation and now she is fine.

Priyanka was discharged from the hospital the next day after the operation.

I do feel a bit sore post surgery, but the absence of any stitches comforts me and provides me the confidence that I shall be well again.”
