Pramod, an elderly gentleman from Barabanki, who was diagnosed with chest pain escalating into a medical emergency. The diagnosis had worsened after local treatment, and doctors were worried that he might have an attack.

It was at the Tender Palm Hospital that Pramod was subjected to thorough appraisal. Angiography, the test done, showed a critical blockage in the heart with two of the three major arteries lying heavily blocked. It was thus a complex presentation marking the challenge for surgery, since bypass surgery was often recommended in such cases in elderly patients.

Now, the problem is not too complex for the team working with Dr. Gautam Swaroop at Tender Palm Hospital who has come up with a much less invasive and therefore more risky approach: complex CTO chronic total occlusion angioplasty which involves a much more complicated procedure requiring wires to be introduced into the blocked arteries and thus fixing blood flow.

Dr. Swaroop and his team performed the CTO angioplasty without much hassle by opening the pathways of blood to Pramod's heart. This promising treatment avoided bypass surgery. There were fewer risks involved with this major procedure.

After about a day since the procedure was done on him, Pramod was showing improvements at an astounding rate. He recovered from the hospital on the very next day. His strength was returning as well as his normal daily activities.

In the case of Pramod, the extent of expert skill and dedication by the team working at Tender Palm Hospital can be recognized. Scores of patients would have lost their lives but due to the ability of having proper treatment through innovative solutions for complicated cardiac conditions, here it is feasible.
