Young Man with Severe Bullet Injury Gets New Lease of Life

A 25-year-old man got a new lease of life after a bullet stuck in his rib cage leading to a fracture and severe wound was successfully removed in a surgery performed at Wockhardt Hospitals, Nagpur.

The man, hailing from Madhya Pradesh, was shot by a rival in a property dispute.

An immediate surgery was suggested which was not possible in his hometown.

The surgery was performed by Dr Sameet Pathak, cardiovascular and thoracic surgeon, Dr Manoj Pahukar, orthopaedic surgeon, and Dr Swanand Melag, anesthetist.

“I was shot on my left shoulder and a high-end surgery was advised,” the victim said, adding, “I recovered in five days.”
