A 75-year-old Woman's Undetected Cardiac Condition is Successfully Diagnosed and Treated at Fortis Hospital Anandapur

News Desk, News Nation 360: Clinical teams at Fortis Hospital, Anandapur, led by Director & Chief of Interventional Cardiology Dr. Shuvanan Ray successfully identified and managed a potentially fatal condition in a 75-year-old female patient who initially arrived for routine pre-surgery tests ahead of an elective robotic cholecystectomy: despite being diagnosed with only mild aortic stenosis at other facilities, the patient’s subtle shortness of breath on presentation prompted her physicians to order a comprehensive CT aortic valve calcium score, which in turn detected severe aortic stenosis that would’ve proved absolutely contraindicated for anesthesia, with the patient undergoing an uneventful Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation and returning to normal health within a week, with Facility Director Mr. Ashish Mukherjee and Dr. Ray commenting on the criticality of acute awareness, calcium scoring, and interprofessional flexibility in such cases to avert mortal risk during seemingly unrelated procedures.
