My team & i have started doing robotically assisted heart surgeries at the Fortis hospital Banglore .
It’s impressive to see that almost all of them are extubated on table and have dramatically less post operative pain & blood loss.
All of them have a superior cosmetic outcome.
Good procedure for closure of ASDs, Mitral valve repairs & a selected group of patients needing coronary bypass surgeries ( CABG ).

Dr Gurushant B Rairam: Noble Anatomist
When the intangible assets are right wonders manifests.
Dr G B Rairam superannuated, so, members of MRMC Teacher’s Cooperative society stopped contributing to the society. That was the trust teachers of M R Medical College had in him!
Dr Gurushant B Rairam, Former Prof & Head of Anatomy, M R Medical College & S Nijalingappa Medical College, Bagalkot left behind a subtle aura at both the institutions.
Nascent, when Dr Rairam Sir joined S Nijalingappa Medical College, Bagalkot, he along with other faculty could establish one of the best departments in the institution.
20-25 students per dissection body was reduced to 10 students per dissection body in a short period of time by organising Body donation sensitization programs and involving local religious heads.
The Anatomy museum had the maximum number of specimens which included rare ones like single specimen of Brain, Spinal Cord, Eye balls with Optic Nerve and pituitary glands.
Dr Rairam believes, ‘Anatomy students can get the best out of the subject by correlating structure, function and applied Anatomy’. ‘However’, he laments, ‘the compressed hours of teaching has eclipsed this style of learning’.
For a spiritual practitioner, introduction of spiritual orientation to new entrants was natural.
For a man of few words with reticent nature, it took me lot of coaxing. And while he started communicating, the peaceful aura of his home took our conversation beyond an hour. I didn’t realize it!
Interestingly, his home has a comfortable Meditation Room that is a respite for not only family members but friends and acquaintances.
Modest to take any credit to his volitional endeavours in his personal & professional life, he believes the natural forces aligned to accomplish seemingly challenging tasks with least effort.
Sorry to inform that shri dr M G Desai -father of dr Girish desai and renowned senior physician n teacher to many ,is no more
May his soul rest in eternal peace n pray God gives our freind n his family members overcome this grief 🙏🏼

We did our first percutaneous transcatherter aortic valve replacement in the CUNNINGHAM road fortis hospital in Banglore today,on a 87 year patient of mine with a severe calcific aortic valve stenosis.This frail gentleman was quite sick and was on a permanant supra public urinary catheter for an inoperable obstruction by a severe prostatic enlargement.The procedure was performed very smoothly in just an our by the surgeons ,cardiologists and Anesthesiologist together as a perfect team.
The visiting proctor Dr Andreka peters was almost only standby as a guide
In simple English it means we did replace the heart valve INSIDE the heart without opening the chest or stopping the heart without an open heart surgery
Patient will go home in 2 days

It's a fine sunny day in the forest and a rabbit is sitting outside his burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter.
Along comes a fox, out for a walk.
Fox : "What are you working on?"
Rabbit: "My thesis."
Fox : "Hmm... What is it about?"
Rabbit : "Oh, I'm writing about how rabbits eat foxes."
Fox : "That's ridiculous! Any fool knows that rabbits don't eat foxes!
Rabbit : "Come with me and I'll show you!"
They both disappear into the rabbit's burrow. After few minutes, gnawing on a fox bone, the rabbit returns to his typewriter and resumes typing.
Soon a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworking rabbit.
Wolf : "What's that you are writing?"
Rabbit : "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat wolves."
Wolf : "you don't expect to get such rubbish published, do you?"
Rabbit : "No problem. Do you want to see why?"
The rabbit and the wolf go into the burrow and again the rabbit returns by himself, after a few minutes, and goes back to typing.
Finally a bear comes along and asks, "What are you doing?
Rabbit : "I'm doing a thesis on how rabbits eat bears."
Bear : "Well that's absurd!"
Rabbit : "Come into my home and I'll show you"
Scene : As they enter the burrow, the rabbit introduces the bear to the lion.
Moral: IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW SILLY YOUR THESIS TOPIC IS. WHAT MATTERS IS tumahara guide kitna powerful hai.""
