发帖数: 951 | 1 Indian man survives for two months with bullet lodged in his heart
An Indian man is recovering well after undergoing surgery to remove a bullet
which had been lodged in his heart for two months, a doctor has said.
Bharat Sharma, 32, was shot twice by robbers during a bank raid in the
country’s eastern Uttar Pradesh state in July, according to the Times of
India.
Sharma had surgery to remove a bullet from his waist but surgeons objected
to removing the one in his heart amid fears the procedure would kill him,
the report said.
But on Tuesday Sharma travelled to a private hospital in Ahmedabad, western
India, to remove the .20-calibre bullet lodged near the apex of his left
ventricle.
The cardiac surgeon at SAL hospital, Anil Jain, confirmed he and his team
performed the complicated three-hour operation to remove the bullet and
stitch up Sharma’s heart.
“The bullet was stuck horizontally between the valves,” Jain said. “Also,
since the patient had lost lots of blood after the incident, we had to be
very careful. How the patient survived and reached us is pure destiny.”
The surgeon said Sharma, who was recovering in the intensive care unit,
would be able to return to work in a month.
