Emergency Intervention Saves a Patient’s Kidney from Damage at Mouwasat Hospital Jubail

In a complex emergency case, Mouwasat Hospital Jubail received a 46-year-old patient with a history of atrial fibrillation who arrived at the Emergency Department suffering from severe flank pain along with deterioration in kidney function.

Examinations and imaging revealed an acute blockage in the artery responsible for supplying blood to the kidney, resulting in a severe reduction in blood flow and the beginning of tissue damage due to inadequate perfusion.

Following an urgent assessment by the Vascular Surgery team, immediate intervention was decided, and the patient was transferred to the Vascular Catheterization Department within less than one hour of the assessment.

During the procedure, the medical team successfully removed the clot causing the blockage of the renal artery and its main branches using an advanced clot extraction technique. The procedure was performed through a small access point via the femoral artery under local anesthesia and took only 35 minutes.

By the grace of God, the procedure successfully restored blood flow to the kidney. The patient showed significant improvement while kidney function was preserved, and he was able to leave the hospital in good health.

Total Shoulder Replacement Ends a Patient’s Suffering and Restores Mobility at Mouwasat Hospital Madinah

The medical team at Mouwasat Hospital Madinah successfully ended the suffering of a patient with advanced shoulder joint arthritis that had caused severe pain and significant difficulty moving and raising her arm. This had clearly affected her ability to carry out daily activities and led her to rely continuously on painkillers to relieve the pain.

The patient had visited the hospital’s Orthopedic Surgery Clinics after suffering from severe shoulder joint pain and difficulty moving her arm normally for several months. Following the necessary medical examinations and diagnostic imaging, advanced shoulder joint arthritis was identified, accompanied by erosion of the joint surfaces and significant loss of joint mobility.

Due to certain challenges related to her general health condition, the patient underwent a comprehensive medical assessment before surgery, with all necessary procedures and preparations carried out in coordination between the Anesthesia team and the relevant medical teams to ensure that the operation was performed according to the highest safety standards.

The operation was performed by Dr. Mohamed Elbakosh, Consultant and Head of the Orthopedic Department at the hospital. The shoulder joint was completely replaced with an advanced artificial joint, along with treatment and rehabilitation of the surrounding tissues, with the aim of restoring normal movement and function of the arm.

By the grace of God and the efforts of the medical team, the operation was successful. The patient was able to begin moving her arm within a short period after surgery and started a physiotherapy program the following day under the supervision of the specialized team. She was discharged from the hospital in good health after several days to begin rehabilitation and gradually regain her range of motion.

Follow-up visits at the outpatient clinics showed noticeable improvement in her condition, with a gradual restoration of her ability to use her arm and perform daily activities, positively affecting her quality of life and psychological well-being.

This success reflects the specialized joint replacement services provided by Mouwasat Hospital Madinah, including knee, hip, shoulder, and ankle replacements, utilizing modern surgical techniques and high-quality artificial joints according to the needs of each case.

Mouwasat Hospital Jubail Successfully Removes a Rare and Complex Carotid Body Tumor

Mouwasat Hospital Jubail achieved a new medical milestone as the Vascular Surgery team successfully performed a delicate surgical procedure to remove a rare and complex tumor in the carotid artery region of the neck. The tumor was classified as Shamblin III and was found in a 40-year-old patient who had been referred to the hospital after visiting several other hospitals due to the complexity of his condition.

The patient was suffering from symptoms caused by the size and extension of the tumor and its pressure on the surrounding tissues, requiring detailed medical and imaging assessments and the development of a specialized surgical plan.

A Shamblin III carotid body tumor is considered a rare and surgically complex condition due to the tumor’s close attachment to the carotid arteries and its proximity to important nerves in the neck. Its removal therefore requires a high level of precision and specialized surgical expertise to reduce the risk of bleeding or nerve injury.

Examinations showed that the tumor extended around and adhered to both carotid arteries and was associated with the hypoglossal nerve. Following careful planning, the medical team successfully removed the tumor completely while preserving the integrity of the arteries and nerves.

The procedure was performed through collaboration between the Vascular Surgery and Anesthesia teams. Careful preoperative planning and surgical precision enabled complete removal of the tumor with limited blood loss and no significant neurological complications.

By the grace of God, the patient experienced a good recovery following the operation, with intact neurological functions and no difficulties with swallowing or breathing. He remained under observation at the hospital for two nights before being discharged home in stable condition and returning to his normal life.

Such complex surgical cases require advanced expertise, precise planning, and close coordination among medical teams due to the sensitive location of the tumor and its proximity to major blood vessels and important nerves.

The success of this procedure reflects the specialized medical expertise and advanced capabilities available at Mouwasat Hospital Jubail for managing complex surgical cases, contributing to comprehensive healthcare and the best possible outcomes for patients.

These highly precise surgical procedures are part of the specialized medical services that Mouwasat Medical Services Company continues to develop and support by attracting specialized medical professionals and providing the latest technologies and equipment to enhance the quality of healthcare provided to patients.
