Dear Supporters,

Thank you so much for all the support!

Surbhi is doing fine, currently, she is undergoing prolonged recovery and rehabilitation. For reconstruction flap salvage and airway maintenance, she underwent two more surgeries. Now, she will need one more surgery to correct her vocal chord position and that will be the last step of treatment which will help her eat and drink safely without any threat. She will need two more years of injection to prevent the recurrence tumour. This has resulted in cost escalation.

Looking forward to your support.

Thank you

Dear Supporters,

Thank you so much for all the support toward the cause. Here is a tentative treatment plan for Surbhi:

  1. We all have agreed on that Surgical debulking and post-operative Chemotherapy provides the best chance for the child now. 
       2. Surgery will be a major undertaking with the following teams involved           - Onco surgery: Dr. Girish & Team
           - Pediatric Surgery: Dr. Narendra Babu and team
           - CTVS surgery: Dr. Ganesh Iyer and team
           - Plastics and reconstructive: Dr. Madhusudan and team
           - ENT: Dr. Prateek Nayak

           Support teams
           - Intervention Radiology: Dr. Nischal and team
           - Anesthesia and Critical care: Dr. Arun and Team
           - PICU: Dr. Chetan and team
           - Pediatric Oncology: Dr. Raghuram and team

        3. The brief outline of the surgical plan (3 days starting Tuesday 7th Jan to 9th Jan)
          Day 1: Intervention radiology - Feeding vessel Embolisation under GA in OT.
          24 hr observation in PICU - Intubated Ventilated.

           Day 2: Surgical debulking in OT under GA
          Back to PICU post-operative period - Intubated Ventilated.

           Day 3: Skin grafting and reconstruction in OT under GA
          PICU shift for aftercare.

        4. Preparation required

         - to examine and document Vocal cord status.
         - detailed consenting
         - Any other technical and equipment preparation.

There is no definitive threat to life.

But the final verdict will be possible after the surgery.
The chances that tumor may recur is high and that's why we need to follow up the child with Chemotherapy for 2 years.

We are planning the best functional and cosmetic outcome to make all the effort worth it.

Thank you and warm regards,
