Surgical technique named after Dr. Santosh Kumar of Chandigarh | ummid.com
Kumar had undertaken the new technique earlier this year on a 22-year-old married woman from a rural family who was suffering from a rare parasitic cystic tumour on her kidney. The patient's husband and in-laws had left her with her parents after they realised that the tumour would have to be removed through an open surgery that would leave her with surgical scars for life.
