A groundbreaking procedure at Mandeville Regional Hospital saved a 72-year-old man's only remaining leg, preserving his mobility and independence. Consultant General Surgeon Dr. Varunesh Chand discussed the complex bypass surgery, why it was such a significant achievement, and what it means for the future of specialised surgical care in Jamaica. #SmileJamaica
Our amputation rate is among the highest in the world. Threatened limbs need urgent imaging with endovascular or open revascularization if feasible. Happy to report this gentleman is doing well ๐๐ฝ
The Mandeville Regional Hospital (MRH) in Manchester has successfully carried out a complex bypass procedure that prevented the amputation of a patientโs only remaining lower limb.

@GerroKing@876chad Thatโs because the manual says 90. But itโs referring to RON ( Japan) and since he doesnโt know the difference the misinformation spreads. 90 RON is basically 85-86 AKI ( Jamaica). I assure you no Vitz needs 90 AKI
