Mysore/Mysuru: A team led by Dr. Madhura Phatak, Senior Consultant, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Laparoscopic Gynae Surgeon along with Dr. Y. Jayakarthik, Senior Consultant Surgical Oncologist, Motherhood Hospital, Mysuru, have successfully done an advanced laparoscopic surgery on a woman suffering from advanced uterine cancer. This technically challenging surgery has been done for the first time by Laparoscopy in Mysuru.
Mrs. Nalini (name changed), a 58-year-old woman, was concerned when she noticed post-menopausal bleeding 8 years after menopause. She consulted Dr. Phatak, who suggested for a scan and biopsy of uterine lining which involved removal of tissue for examination as she suspected cancer of uterus.
