Today at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Lucknow, we brought together over 50+ kidney transplant recipients and their families for a heartfelt Transplant Support Group Meeting. Patients shared their courageous journeys from dialysis to second life after transplant, reminding us that transplantation is not just a surgery but a lifelong partnership. We felicitated every transplant warrior and their families, honoring their strength and discipline. I am deeply grateful to the entire Kidney Transplant Team at Max for making this event a grand success. Together, we continue healing lives and spreading hope.

This is a story of hope that follows two decades of struggle. Urinary issues in women—an often misunderstood challenge. Recently, at Max Super Speciality Hospital in Lucknow, we treated a 52-year-old woman who had been suffering from a persistently slow urinary stream. She strained to urinate, often taking up to 30 minutes to release just a few drops of urine, experienced severe pain during urination, felt a constant sense of incomplete bladder emptying, and had frequent urination during the day (20 times) and night (10 times), along with recurrent UTIs. After multiple unsuccessful treatments and being told surgery would likely fail or lead to incontinence, she underwent a carefully planned and complex procedure for complete urethral dense stricture from meatus (external opening) to bladder neck. "Ventral Buccal Graft Urethroplasty with Martius Interposition Flap" This surgical technique involved reconstructing the urethra using a graft from the inner cheek and a vascular support flap to ensure healing. Today, she's free from pain, able to void comfortably in seconds, and has returned to a normal, independent life—a remarkable change that highlights the significance of accurate diagnosis and specialized care. 🌟 The patient consents to share her story. 📺 Media Coverage & Patient Story: ▶️ Watch on YouTube: 🔗 https://youtu.be/U0ca2GnLogs?si=v6dmhiEF6Hp7159C&utm_source=Tumblr 📰 Read the news article (Dainik Bhaskar): 🔗 https://dainik.bhaskar.com/5MpVqhrxBTb?utm_source=Tumblr I sincerely thank the dedicated urology team and Max leadership for providing best-in-class infrastructure for supporting such complex urological work.

Honored, humbled, and inspired. 🙏 The inaugural book by Indian authors on kidney transplantation, "Practical Guide to Kidney Transplantation," was unveiled at KTCON 2025 in Kochi. I’m grateful to have authored a unique chapter titled “Kidney Armamentarium,” which details every essential tool, instrument, and setup necessary to begin a transplant program. According to "iThenticate," this is the only literature of its kind available globally, making it both academically valuable and practically essential. Deeply honored that images from this chapter are featured on the book’s front cover. I am truly honored to be elected unopposed as a Council Member of the Renal Transplant Section of the Urological Society of India for the next two years. 🙏💙 Sharing a few glimpses from this milestone. 📷👇
