Usually, uterine and ovarian cases are handled by gynecologists, and rarely do patients consult a GI surgeon. But, when a case of rare tumors of the uterus and ovaries presented itself, the doctors at New Civil Hospital, Surat, requested the assistance of a GI surgeon.
When Dr. Jay Chokshi saw the patient Mrs. Lalita Shankarbhai Vasava, her sonography and MRI reports revealed rare tumors of 8 kgs in her ovaries and 3 kgs in her uterus. It affected her so much that she could not partake in routine activities. The tumors caused severe abdominal bloating and swelling that made everyday activities uncomfortable for her.
Along with gynecologist Dr. Dhwani Desai, GI cancer expert Dr. Jay Chokshi operated on the patient on 27th September 2021 for several hours to remove the tumors. The complicated surgery lasted for more than two and a half hours. Now, the patient is healthy and on a quick road to recovery.
