In a groundbreaking surgical achievement, Dr. Ashish Rawandale Patil (born July 31, 1971), a renowned urologist from Institute of Urology, Dhule, successfully removed what is reported to be one of the heaviest kidneys ever surgically extracted, weighing 2.14 kilograms.
The rare and complex surgery was performed on Ms. Mangala Mali, a 42-year-old patient, who had been suffering from a severely enlarged kidney. The kidney measured a massive 33.72 cm x 14.14 cm x 15.05 cm, making it a significant case in the field of urology and a possible entry into medical record books.
The procedure showcased Dr. Patil’s surgical expertise and the advanced capabilities of the Institute of Urology in managing extreme and rare urological conditions. The patient is reported to have recovered well following the operation.
This achievement marks a major milestone in Indian medical history and sets a benchmark in the field of urology for handling highly complex surgical cases with precision.
