Back from NIMHANS - Latest status

Priya and her husband had reached Bangalore on 23rd July and on 24th July, Priya was seen by senior neuro surgeon, Dr. Pruthi, Dr Sampath and HOD Dr Bhaskar. They advised for an immediate DSA and MRI. As only one MRI machine was working, there was a waiting period of a couple weeks or more.

Once again, our volunteer network sprung into action and within three days, the MRI (28th July) and the DSA (29 July) was done. Priya and his spouse visited the Neurosurgery Department again with the reports – the outcome was simultaneously good and a little worrisome.

The good news was that though the AVM was large, the surgery would be successful with embolization the surgery and the AVM could be completely cured.

(Surgery of AVM: The AVM is surgically removed in an operating room under general anesthesia. Since AVMs do not grow back, the cure is immediate and permanent if the AVM is removed completely. The risks of surgery are considered to be high for AVMs that are located in deep parts of the brain with very important functions.)

The worrying news was, while the surgery would be completed at a very minimal cost, the embolization material cost needed to be arranged by the patient. The embolization material is imported from US and costs approx. 4.5 lakhs. So, in total approx. 5 Lakhs was the estimate provided by NIMHANS. To make matters worse, Priya's husband, Abhijit has lost his job a few months earlier. With him currently out of job and without any savings, it’s impossible for them to arrange for this amount. We, at Mission Arogya, have extended support to Priya with the incidental costs so far, but 5 lakhs is a big amount. And we request you to help Priya and provide her with a new life. Without your help, it will be impossible to get the surgery done.

Visited Private Clinic – consulted Neurologist Did CT Angiography Confirmed presence of large AVM Surgery must, which was estimated to be approx. 4 lakhs. The Patient’s family cannot afford 4 Lakhs and so we are trying to find out where these surgery can happen free or at a minimum subsidized cost. We are trying in Bangur Institute of Neurology but as of now, it seems, that might not be possible for varied reasons. Due to the large AVM, couple of Neurologists have mentioned to get the surgery done at NIMHANS (also it will be free). As such if any one of you have any contact with NIMHANS please provide that contact to me at rsengupta@missionarogya.org Or if you have any other su

Updates on 11th Jun 2017

Several updates in last one week. We tried multiple routes 1. Shared all the reports with our doctors network including neurologists and neurosurgeons 2. All were of the opinion it's a large AVM and needs to be operated. 3. One specific clinical opinion from a renowned neuro-surgeon Dr Paritosh Pandey , who had operated just couple of months earlier another complicated cases of one of our patient - "This patient has a large AVM, which has probably ruptured. It is a very complicated AVM, and needs evaluation with MRI and DSA. This AVM is large for Gamma knife radiosurgery. Ideally, this will require a couple of session of embolization, followed by surgery.” 4. But the husband , currently without job, really cannot afford costly treatment. 5. Based on the above the cost wise feedback was "That (above treatment in 3) is an expensive proposition, as embolization costs money for materials. Upfront surgery is doable, but carries risk of short term deficit
