The survival often depends on minutes, which makes quick intervention critical.

Talk about this extraordinary case, Dr. Mn Bhat, Senior Intervention Cardiologist, KMC Hospital, Mangalore said “A orth aortic aneurysm is a quickly fatal illness with very little time to act.

Precision, speed and teamwork were crucial. Endovascular techniques have revolutionized the management of such life -threatening vascular emergencies.“”
