"Doctors remove world's largest kidney in Delhi hospital"

Surgeons have removed the world's largest kidney weighing 2.75 kg from a 45-year-old patient, authorities at Delhi's Sir Ganga Ram Hospital said on Tuesday.

Subash Yadav (name changed) was diagnosed with chronic renal failure with severe pain in the abdomen, blood in urine and high fever. Little did he know that what was building inside his body was a kidney almost equivalent to the size of a baby. Normal kidneys weigh approximately 130 grams. The Guinness Book of World Records reports a kidney weighing 2.15 kg as the world's largest, which was removed in Dhule, Maharashtra, in 2011.

Due to severe infection in the kidneys, Yadav's condition was deteriorating with every passing day. Besides, it was leading to loss of blood. After consulting various doctors, Yadav landed at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital in the national Capital last month, and doctors decided to remove both the kidneys in a life-saving procedure.

Relief from Back-Pain, Herniated Disk issues with Sophisticated Minimal Access Spine Surgery in INDIA

In a study conducted along with an investigation, about 40 percent of low-back pain instances documented throughout the world are attributed to these work-related factors.
Spine Specialists explain that all these back pain instances are due to prolonged working and sitting at workstations in the front of computer screens, individuals often hurt their back when they sit for hours beyond their ability is normal, thus resulting in pain in the back, additionally in the lower back which bears the maximum brunt. The effort results in back pain illnesses such as, spondylitis or herniated disc to mild back pain types like a simple muscle strain.
Orthopaedic surgeon of a leading Hospital in India, is of the view that in cases where the trouble of ‘herniated disc’ continues despite extend use of medications, Minimal Access Spine Surgery Treatments (MAST) would be better and sensible choice for such patients. “Minimal Access Spine Surgery Treatments (MAST) enables doctors to effectively handle spine-pain and damages using minimal amount of access and interruption while achieving the exact results which are achieved through an open spine surgery”
Minimal Access Spine Surgery Treatments (MAST) could be carried out by creating two or three little insertions and the patient can go back to standard-lifestyle program post-healing as there’s reduced muscle injury, less intra-operative blood loss, and smaller clinic stays.” Especially since the MAST procedure is through a little-open process (working by way of a tiny cut) to handle all regions of the spinal column unlike an open spine surgery which takes time and extends patient stay.

Researchers have discovered a way to generate new human neurons from another type of adult cell found in our brains, a find which could aid treatment of neuro degenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
In a study published
in the journal Cell Stem Cell, researchers aimed at converting a type of cells already present in the brain to neurons.
The cells that made the leap from one identity to another are known as pericytes. Those cells, found in close association with the blood vessels, are important for keeping the blood-brain barrier intact and have been shown to participate in wound healing in other parts of the body
Further testing showed that those newly converted neurons could produce electrical signals and reach out to other neurons, providing evidence that the converted cells could integrate into neural networks.
