Prashanth Hospitals Introduce Technology for Super Microsurgery

Chennai:
Prashanth Hospitals, one of Chennai's leading and state-of-the-art Super specialty hospital brings a cutting edge technology for the first time in India by introducing the ‘40x Microscope’, a break-through solution for surgeries which require high precision, according to Dr C Geetha Haripriya, Chairperson, Prashanth Hospitals.

The ‘40x Microscope’ with magnification capability of 40 times the normal naked eye vision is used for connecting blood vessels and repairing nerves in the field of Microsurgery, which is in vogue now. This new high-tech microscope also enables surgeons in viewing the lymphatic vessels underneath the skin and sub-millimeter blood vessels which can be repaired under 40 x magnifications, thus resulting in rightly naming the procedure as ‘Super Microsurgery’.

Geetha Haripriya said, “We have always believed in providing the best and the most advanced treatment to all our patients. The 40x microscope is revolutionary and will immensely boost the clinical and surgical treatments provided at our hospital, further proving beneficial for doctors and also bolstering the use of innovative and cost effective techniques to treat our patients.”

The 40x microscope which has a ICG Dye based Near Infrared (NIR) Camera will assist surgeons while performing complicated surgeries like Plastic surgery, Breast surgery, Diabetic foot surgery and Neurosurgery and also on those with Brain Aneurysm, proving to be a lifeline for patients with complicated health conditions.

Babies with finger tip amputations will enormously benefit from this new technological advancement as it involves high precision and expertise.

There are instances, when doctors have to perform surgery on very thin flimsy sub-millimeter ‘Lymphatic Vessels’ as in the case of persistent Lymphedema following surgery on breast cancer patients. These patients will benefit from a feature of the new operating microscope, made specifically keeping Lymphedema Surgery in mind that increases the magnification to 40 times than normal.

With this new operating microscope, doctors will be able to perform the below mentioned medical procedures which were near impossible earlier:
