A Unique Limb-Lengthening Surgical Procedure Performed by Dr. Prasad P.N.V.S.V entered Limca Book of World Records

History was made at KIMS Hospital when their own Dr. Prasad P.N.V.S.V encouraged by Dr. Bhaskar Rao, CEO and MD of KIMS, successfully conducted a unique surgical procedure (Osteotomy of tibia) on Jainab, a young girl suffering from Achondroplasia. During the surgery, Dr. Prasad used an Ilizarov Fixator to lengthen Jainab’s legs by no less than 16 cm in a single stage procedure. The surgery was carried out on August 21st, 2005, but today Dr. Prasad has been recognized by the Limca Book of World Records in its recently released 20th edition, for the Longest Limb Lengthening Procedure. Dr. Bhaskar Rao extended his hearty congratulations to Dr. Prasad on his outstanding feat.
