Doctors in Kolkata have successfully performed a highly specialised Endovascular Aneurysm Repair (EVAR) on a 67-year-old man from Mizoram who had been diagnosed with a large abdominal aortic aneurysm, a critical swelling of the body's main blood vessel in the abdomen.
The complex, minimally invasive procedure was carried out under the expert care of Dr Subhasis Roy Chowdhury, and Dr. Jayanta Das from the Department of Vascular Surgery at Manipal Hospital, Broadway.
