Dr Agarwals to Conduct Glaucoma Patient Summit in Chennai!




Chennai: 

Dr Agarwals Eye Hospital is organizing Glaucoma Patient Summit in Chennai on March 29, 2024. To be addressed by some of the leading ophthalmologists and glaucoma specialists in India, the event is expected to attract the participation of hundreds of patients from across the country.

For registration, patients can visit https://www.dragarwal.com/glaucoma-patient-summit/ or contact 95949 01868.

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can cause vision loss and blindness by damaging a nerve in the back of the eyes called the optic nerve. The symptoms can start so slowly that patients may not notice them. The only way to find out if a person has glaucoma is to get a comprehensive dilated eye exam.

For all in-person participants, basic glaucoma eye checkup will be conducted free of cost. The tests will include: NCT and Fundus picture screening. The summit will also have interactive sessions for the participants to ask questions and get expert opinions. The participation fee is Rs.99 per person. The participants who upload their prescription during registration will receive a waiver of the registration charge upon successful verification. Free consultations will be available for registered participants for one week.

Interacting with the media, Dr. Ashvin Agarwal, Chief of Clinical Services, said glaucoma is the most common cause of irreversible blindness. There are 80 million people worldwide with this condition. The age-standardized prevalence of glaucoma is approximately 3–5% in the population aged 40 years and older worldwide. In India, it is the third leading cause of blindness after cataract and refractive error. At present, there are 12 million patients with glaucoma in the country. But treatment and regular checkups can help slow or prevent vision loss, especially if you catch the disease in its early stages. It is also important to create awareness about breakthrough medical and surgical treatments, and strategies in managing this sight-stealing condition.”

Talking about the goals of the summit, he said, “We are conducting first-ever Glaucoma Patient Summit so that no patient has to fight glaucoma alone. The event will bring together individuals living with glaucoma to empower each other through knowledge, connection, and shared experiences. With the panel discussions, they can learn all about glaucoma, advanced glaucoma eye treatment options, its medical and surgical management, and connect with expert doctors and peers, and discover resources to live their best life.”

Apollo Cancer Centres Pioneers A New Era In Breast Cancer Surgery!



 

Chennai:

Renowned for its commitment to excellence in healthcare, Apollo Cancer Centre, Chennai (ACC), has achieved a ground-breaking surgical milestone by successfully performing South Asia's first-ever robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction. The surgeons were able to remove the entire breast while preserving the nipple through tiny hidden incisions, enabling aesthetic outcomes for the patient.


Performed by Apollo Cancer Centres’ esteemed team of robotic surgical oncologists, led by Dr. Venkat P and Dr. Priya Kapoor, this innovative procedure marks a significant advancement in the field of breast cancer surgery.


The surgery was conducted on a 37-year-old woman from Assam who was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer and a BRCA1 mutation. Given her condition, a bilateral mastectomy with removal of both her ovaries prophylactically was required.


Considering her age and the importance of preserving the natural appearance of her breasts, the approach chosen was a nipple-sparing mastectomy. This technique aims to minimize the impact on the patient's quality of life by preserving an essential body marker for women and ensuring a more positive post-treatment experience.

The surgeons followed specific protocols to successfully execute this surgery. Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the patient opted for bilateral mastectomy and prophylactic oophorectomy. The innovative Robotic Nipple Sparing Mastectomy (NSM) with Risk-Reducing Oophorectomy was performed, utilizing tiny incisions and leveraging the advantages of robotic surgery.


Udipti Barua (name changed on request) said, “The clinicians at Apollo Cancer Centre facilitated a remarkably swift recovery, enabling me to resume my normal routine within a week after a life-altering procedure. Dr. Venkat and the team allowed me to reclaim my life with dignity, preserving my natural appearance while conquering cancer. Today, I emerge stronger and with renewed hope."


Dr. Venkat P, Senior Consultant - Surgical Oncology, ACC Chennai, expressed his optimism about the future of robotic breast surgery in India, stating, “In our commitment to preserving the patient's natural breast contour, we embraced the revolutionary approach of robotic bilateral mastectomy with risk-reducing oophorectomy. This cutting-edge, robotic-assisted technique not only provided superior visualization but also minimized blood loss, improved ergonomics, and delivered outstanding cosmetic outcomes. The patient's successful & faster recovery aided for a discharge within 24 hours’ post-procedure.”


Dr. Priya Kapoor, Consultant – Surgical Oncology, ACC Chennai, said, “The procedure not only removes the entire breast through discreet incisions but also increases the likelihood of preserving sensation in breast skin and nipple. The innovation goes beyond, leaving the nipple, skin, and breast intact even after surgery, preserving the entire shape of the breast. By introducing this new technique, we aim to provide our patients with the best possible cosmetic outcomes and ensure a better quality of life post-surgery.”


Dr. Preetha Reddy, the Executive Vice Chairperson of Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Limited, expressed immense pride in a ground breaking achievement, stating, "It is exhilarating to witness the extraordinary triumph of our robotic surgical team, under the leadership of Dr. Venkat and Dr. Priya, in achieving South Asia's inaugural robotic bilateral nipple-sparing mastectomy, with the Da Vinci Xi. The exceptional results of this innovative surgery herald the inauguration of RoBreaS, India's premier robotic breast surgery program. Moreover, setting a new standard in surgical excellence, this effort paves the way for a future where advanced technology and compassionate care converge, igniting new hope in cancer care. At large, it is a testament to our unwavering dedication to offering superior treatment options, and make advanced healthcare much more accessible to all.”


Breast cancer stands as the most prevalent cancer in women globally, and it ranks as the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Recognizing the increasing incidence of breast cancer, particularly in younger women, Apollo Cancer Centre has been at the forefront of adopting cutting-edge technologies to improve patient outcomes.

"iSTEEL Unveils iSTEEL Zinc, Next-Gen Galvanized XLS TMT Bars, offering Three Times Longer Life for Constructions"


Chennai: 

Viki Industries, which markets iSTEEL, a brand synonymous with premium TMT bars across South India, has launched iSTEEL Zinc, a groundbreaking zinc-coated TMT bar offering up to three times higher life for constructions than traditional TMT bars.

Manufactured based on an advanced galvanizing technology, iSTEEL Zinc is best suited for constructions in corrosion-prone regions such as coastal areas within a 50-kilometer radius, locales near water bodies and industrial zones. The zinc coating provides reliable protection against corrosion, making them perfect for coastal or humid environments. This is backed by proven and time-tested laboratory tests.

Essential for construction in coastal areas and diverse applications such as foundations, industries, and water tanks, iSTEEL Zinc, galvanised XLS TMT bars offer unmatched durability and resilience. It is to be noted that galvanised steel has stood the test of time. Iconic structures like the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, and the Lotus Temple in New Delhi stand as a testament to its enduring reliability.

The launch event witnessed the addresses of experts from the industry, including Mr. L. Pugazhendhi, Executive Director of India Lead Zinc Development Association, New Delhi; Dr. T. Venugopal, Former Chief Technology Officer of TATA Steel; and Dr. A.R Santhakumar, Former Emeritus Professor at IIT Madras, and Mr. T. V Subramaniam, Head of Quality Control, iSTEEL.

Speaking at the launch function, Mr. G. Gautam Reddy, CEO of Viki Industries, said:

iSTEEL Zinc innovation is In line with our core purpose, which is to create exceptional building materials that are ahead of the times, thus protecting every home we touch. The new product is set to redefine the standards of construction materials and transform the landscape of construction in the country. Buildings constructed with iSTEEL Zinc, galvanized XLS TMT bars can expect a lifespan of up to 150 years, compared to 50 years with regular TMT bars.

Commenting on the launch in Tamil Nadu, he said: 

“It is estimated that corrosion leads to losses worth Rs 6,00,000 crores annually in India, translating to 4% of the national GDP. Tamil Nadu is highly prone to corrosion, given its coastal nature and heavy industrialization; hence an ideal geography to launch iSTEEL Zinc, Galvanized XLS TMT Bars. This is our way of contributing to reducing corrosion losses to society in India and the world.”

Mr. Reddy added that despite the initial higher investment, iSTEEL, Zinc, and Galvanized XLS TMT Bars offer long-term cost savings with reduced maintenance needs and fewer replacements. Featuring recyclable zinc coatings, these bars contribute to reducing environmental impact through fewer replacements and repairs.

Viki Industries has over 30 years of expertise in manufacturing and marketing construction steel bars. It has consistently delivered 'best in class products' with a strong commitment to sustainability. The launch of iSTEEL Zinc marks a major milestone in the company's journey towards innovation-driven growth and expansion plans. “We are proud that over 3,00,000 homes have been built with iSTEEL and we are confident of growing this number exponentially. We have ambitious plans to take our turnover from Rs. 650 crore at present to Rs. 2000 crores”
