00:00Yesterday morning, at 2.30 am, he was attacked. He came to Leelavati between 3.30 am and 3.45 am.
00:14We were told that he came by auto and came with his child.
00:19But when we saw him in the casualty and examined him in the room, he was in the room, not in the ICU.
00:27He was injured. He had two wounds on his hand, a wound on his neck, which was a deep wound, and multiple small injuries on his body, which we call abrasions.
00:39But he had another major injury in his thoracic bone, where a sharp object, perhaps a part of a knife, was inserted.
00:50And from there, the entry wound was going towards the spinal cord.
00:54Almost the spinal cord was being touched. In the CT scan, we were able to see that he was in the spinal canal.
01:00His tip was almost inserted inside, meaning it was in depth.
01:03That's why we saw him. But despite all this injury, he was able to walk.
01:10He was moving. He had no paralysis.
01:14He was a brave hero. He had a presence in real life.
01:28Of course, he was shocked when someone attacked him in the house at 2 am.
01:36But he handled it well and protected himself.
01:41After the injury, he was immediately taken to the hospital.
01:46After coming to the hospital, our administration team immediately attended him.
01:51The entire team, doctors, whatever was needed, like plastic surgeons, neurosurgeons, I was there, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, radiologists were there.
02:01And our team members were there.
02:04They all prepared him for the operation.
02:07We started anesthetizing him at 5.30 am.
02:10The operation started at 6 am.
02:12He underwent two operations.
02:15First, we operated on his spinal cord.
02:18And the plastic surgeon did a cosmetic surgery on the hand and neck wound and repaired it.
02:27The operation went on for 6 to 6.30 hours.
02:34After he regained consciousness, he was shifted to the ICU for observation.
02:39Today, his update is that we operated on him in the morning.
02:43His recovery is very good. He is positive.
02:46The wounds are healing well.
02:48Because he is stable, we shifted him to a special room.
02:55He has been shifted to a special room today.
02:57He can walk normally.
02:59But his spinal cord, the water closure that was repaired, the water leak,
03:05because of this, we have asked him to rest in bed for two weeks.
03:09So that there is no infection, no repeat leakage, and the wounds heal quickly.
03:14We pray to God that he recovers as soon as possible.
03:19So that we can send him home in two to three days.
03:25And we hope that he will be able to return to his routine activities, including exercise and shooting, in two weeks.
03:35The tip of the knife, when we explored it, when we saw it in the operation,
03:45the tip of the knife, the dura, which is the covering of the spinal cord,
03:49there is water inside it.
03:50There, he made a hole in the dura and the water was leaking.
03:55It was fortunate that if it had gone one or two millimeters more inside,
03:58then his spinal cord, which is precious, could have been controlled.
04:07But he is very fortunate, he is lucky that it did not happen.
04:11And we repaired the leak and removed the foreign body of the knife.
04:17We completely repaired the spinal cord, spinal canal and spine wound.
04:29The two wounds on the hand, which were in front, which were attacked from the front,
04:34they were of the sharp object of the knife.
04:36The two wounds were not plastic surgery.
04:38They were in a lot of depth, but they had to be repaired.
04:41And Dr. Leena Jain, our team, did a good cosmetic surgery.
04:45They repaired it.
04:46They also repaired the wound on the right side of the neck.
04:51But it was not in much depth.
04:53They were lucky that the important nerves, carotid nerves, were saved.
05:00Otherwise, life could have been at risk.
