Complex Surgery Saves Man After Screwdriver Removed from Skull
Doctors at a Chennai hospital successfully performed a complex and high-risk surgery to remove a screwdriver lodged in a man’s skull, showcasing exceptional medical skill and swift emergency response. The patient was brought to the hospital with the tool penetrating deep into his cranial cavity, a condition that posed a severe threat to his life due to the risk of brain damage and excessive bleeding.
A multidisciplinary team of neurosurgeons, anesthetists, and critical care specialists coordinated the operation, which required precise planning and execution to avoid injuring vital structures. Hospital authorities said the surgery was “extremely challenging” because even minor miscalculations could have resulted in irreversible neurological damage.
Post-operation, the patient is reported to be stable and recovering well, with doctors monitoring him closely for complications. The successful procedure has been hailed as a testament to the hospital’s advanced neurosurgical capabilities and the team’s expertise in handling rare medical emergencies.
