The procedure involved the precise embolization of the arteries feeding the aneurysmal lesion, which resulted in:

  • Complete cessation of bleeding 
  • Stabilization of the patient’s condition 
  • Safe discharge from the hospital after noticeable improvement 

Another Success: Treating a Complex Case of Acute Venous Thrombosis 

In a related achievement, the hospital recorded another successful intervention for a patient suffering from acute thrombosis in the pelvic and lower limb veins, a condition that poses serious risks if not managed promptly. 

Using the latest interventional radiology technologies, the medical team performed catheter-directed venous thrombectomy, which contributed to:

  • Significant improvement in blood flow

Riyadh – Mouwasat Hospital 

Mouwasat Hospital in Riyadh received a patient referred from another hospital in the city who was suffering from rectal bleeding and a suspected bowel obstruction caused by an advanced cancerous tumor located in the upper rectum. Following an urgent assessment, the patient was admitted for the necessary laboratory tests and imaging studies. 

Evaluation of the Rectal Tumor 

A coordinated evaluation was conducted between the General Surgery Department and the Oncology Department to determine the optimal treatment plan. After reviewing the diagnostic results, the medical team decided to proceed with a surgical intervention led by: Dr. Ahmed Abdel Fattah Habib – Consultant of General Surgery & Oncology, with the assistance of Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Hindawi – Specialist in General Surgery.

The patient was then prepared for a precise laparoscopic surgical procedure targeting the affected section of the colon and rectum. 

Laparoscopic Resection of the Rectal Tumor 

The entire procedure was performed using advanced laparoscopic surgical techniques and included:

  • Resection of the lower sigmoid colon and upper rectum 
  • Colon-to-rectum anastomosis (reconnection) 
  • Radical lymph node dissection 

This complex operation required a high level of surgical expertise due to the tumor’s advanced stage and its presence in a sensitive anatomical region. 

Postoperative Recovery 

By the grace of God, the surgery was completed successfully, and the patient was discharged in good health. 
He will continue to be monitored through follow-up visits in both the Surgery Clinic and the Oncology Clinic to ensure the completion of his treatment plan according to the highest medical standards.
