Team of Doctor from Lakeview Hospital evaluated the patient & was diagnosed to have (Complete A-V Canal defect with Severe PAH Severe AV regurgitation with a large PDA). Things were complicated as then child is having Down’s syndrome & was weiging hardly 4.3kgs. Cardiac Surgical team which included Dr.Amrut Nerlikar, Dr.P C Halkati, Dr.Prashant M B, Dr.Sunil Kumar, Mr.Prashant Hiremath, successfully operated upon the child & she has made excellent recovery. The child no more turns blue & feeds well.
