Jaipur: In an unusual case, doctors found five metal clips from a patient’s gallbladder who was suffering from pain for past five years.
The patient had undergone surgery in 2018 for removal of stones in gallbladder in a hospital where the doctors who performed the surgery in 2018 left five clips used in surgery inside the gallbladder as he removed the organ partially. They did not remove the gallbladder completely.
As the pain aggravated, the patient reached government-run Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Hospital for the treatment.
“When we removed the leftover portion of gallbladder, we discovered five metallic clips and a small stone of about six mm from inside the gallbladder. This was the first time I found clips inside a gallbladder. This is the first such case in my knowledge. The literature shows that seven cases have been reported of clips being found from inside bile duct. I have performed more than 20,000 gallbladder removal cases, but never seen such a case,” said Dr Jeevan Kankaria, senior professor (surgery), government-run SMS Hospital.
Asha (name changed), a 26-year-old woman, a resident of Bandikui, was suffering from gallstones in the gall bladder for about five years. Due to frequent pain, the gallbladder was operated by laparoscopic technique in 2018 and after the operation, she was discharged from the hospital after about seven to eight days. But the patient remained in constant pain.

Thyroid nodule removed without leaving scar on neck: Innovative surgery at Kerala hospital
A 25-year-old man underwent a successful thyroid surgery without any visible scar on his neck. The surgery was performed using a minimally invasive technique called Trans Oral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy via Vestibular Approach (TOETVA), in which laparoscopic instruments were introduced through the lower lip. The surgery, led by Dr. Sandeep Suresh at Lisie Hospital in Kochi, India, took around 5 hours to complete. This technique is considered technically challenging and is performed in only a few centers in India. The patient was discharged from the hospital three days after the surgery.
