Chief Of Urology, Dr Anurag Khaitan, who has led the team, said, "This is one of the very rare tumours. As the location was in the very difficult area and surgery was very complex, she was refused surgery in many hospitals she visited. Then she approached the department of Urology Paras Hospital. We did advanced testing with PET Scan and CT guided Biopsy. It showed a high grade sarcoma. As these types of tumours are very resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, her only chance of survival was surgery. We did the surgery, which went for six hours and we could remove the tumour completely. Patient tolerated surgery very well and is now recovering."
