AT THE SAME TIME, TWO OPERATIONS WERE PERFORMED ON A 66-YEAR-OLD PATIENT IN THE TURKESTAN REGION

The unusual operation took place on the basis of the Regional clinical hospital. First, the patient was replaced with a prosthetic removed aneurysm of the abdominal aorta. The aorta is a large blood vessel that runs from the heart, and its rupture is a rare and very dangerous phenomenon. The second operation was performed on the kidney. Six surgeons of the regional clinical hospital successfully completed both operations, which lasted for four hours.

Postoperative examination showed that the patient is on the mend. As of today, his condition is satisfactory. According to doctors, by the end of next week, he is scheduled to be discharged.

An aneurysm is a time bomb. It is one of the most dangerous diseases, as it is often asymptomatic. Worldwide, an abdominal aortic aneurysm is detected in 2% of people aged 65-75 years.

It is worth noting that every day the staff of the Regional clinical hospital give consultations and provide medical assistance to other clinics via teleconference.
