In a remarkable medical case, doctors at the King Koti District Hospital (Vaidya Vidhan Parishad) in Hyderabad successfully removed a 5-inch-long stitching needle from a driver’s stomach.
The procedure was conducted on Friday by a team of doctors led by Dr. Venkatesh, Dr. Balraj, and anesthesiologist Srimanth.
Murali, a transport vehicle driver residing in Nallakunta, Hyderabad, had been suffering from persistent abdominal pain for the past two to three months.
He described the sensation as if something was pricking him internally. Seeking relief, Murali visited King Koti Hospital last week, where doctors conducted scans and other diagnostic tests.
These revealed the presence of a long needle-like object lodged in his stomach.
