The 35-year-old patient had been diagnosed with mature teratoma
In what is claimed to be a first-of-its-kind surgery in the Kalyana Karnataka region, urologist Ravindra Patil with his team of doctors at V.L. Patil Super Specialty Hospital in Kalaburagi performed a rare surgery on a 35-year-old woman who was diagnosed with a mature teratoma (Dermoid tumour) in her bladder.
The patient consulted the doctor recently for acute pain in her bladder and also with symptoms of pilimiction (passage of hair in urine).
She was also suffering from occasional hematuria, while the pain in the bladder was subsistent for more than five years
