The patient was admitted to the Orthopedics Department with severe low backache radiating to both legs, coupled with inability to stand, walk, turn on the bed, and difficulty in passing urine and stools, three days prior to admission. An MRI revealed an L5-S1 Extruded Disc causing Cauda Equina Syndrome, a condition requiring immediate intervention. She was promptly referred to the Neurosurgery Department, where urgent surgery was planned.

The surgery was conducted by Dr. Manoj Kumar Deo, Senior Consultant (Neurosurgery), with anesthesia support from Dr. Manoranjan Samantray, Additional CMO, and intra-operative assistance from Sister Godhuli and Brother Kamalakar.

In the post-operative period, the patient demonstrated remarkable improvement. She was able to stand and walk on the very next day after the surgery and reported nearly 70% relief from her pre-operative complaints. She is presently recovering well.

This achievement once again reinforces the clinical excellence of the Neurosurgery team at IGH, which continues to deliver advanced, life-changing care to patients in and around Rourkela.

The annual course offered a comprehensive curriculum that covered the complete spectrum of spine surgery, including trauma, degenerative conditions, tumors, and infections. Participants engaged in mentored surgical sessions, case-based discussions, and advanced workshops to refine both basic and advanced surgical skills.

During the workshops, the participants were provided with training in key areas, including the Midas Workshop, which focused on precision surgical tools; the Robotic Workshop, introducing automation and advanced technology in spine procedures; the Dural Repair Workshop, which highlighted expert techniques for repairing delicate spinal membranes; and the Sawbone Workshop, offering realistic simulations to enhance surgical proficiency.

Dr. Vikas Tandon, Director & Chief of Spine Services, from Indian Spinal Injuries Centre said “The ISIC Spine Course 2024 is an initiative aimed at shaping the future of spine surgery in India. By blending training with expert mentorship, our effort is to bridge the gap between theory and practice, ensuring that young surgeons are equipped to perform complex procedures with precision and confidence. The overwhelming participation and response is an example of the need for such specialized programs.”

A key highlight of the event was the “War of Wizards” quiz, which brought together postgraduate teams from premier medical institutions like AIIMS Delhi, AIIMS Rishikesh, Maulana Medical College, and CMC Vellore. The winners were awarded a fully sponsored one-month observership at ISIC, further enhancing their training opportunities.
