Part of patient’s skull misplaced after surgery
Bengaluru: The Whitefield police have registered an FIR against two surgeons of Vydehi hospital for allegedly misplacing a piece of a patient’s skull while performing a surgery.
The accused doctors have been identified as Dr. Guru Prasad and Dr. Rajesh. The police registered an FIR against the doctors based on a complaint lodged by Rukaminiyama – the mother of Chikkamagaluru based patient Manjunath.
According to Rukminiyama, her 25-year-old son Manjunath had been admitted to Vydehi hospital as he suffered from severe headache. After tests, he was advised to undergo surgery immediately as there was a clot in his brain.
The doctors removed a bone flap from Manjunath's skull during surgery, saying that the brain had swollen and the flap would be replaced later. When they went back to the hospital later seeking surgery for replacement of the skull flap, Guruprasad and Rajesh told them the part had been thrown into a dustbin, she alleged.
However, Dr B Guruprasad told that the patient's family had not understood the procedures despite being clearly told the part cannot be replaced.
Manjunath has two young daughters and his widowed mother works as a domestic help to support his treatment and the family.
Police have sought supporting documents from the complainant about the allegations.

Adityanath govt has completely failed to maintain Taj Mahal, alleges Akhilesh
Lucknow (PTI): Samajwadi Party supremo Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday raised questions over maintenance of the Taj Mahal in Agra and attacked the Yogi Adityanath government saying it should be a "living and active" example, not just a "monument".
Yadav, who shared a viral video in which a plant could be seen sprouting from the dome of the Taj Mahal, said the monument might develop cracks due to the roots.
In a post on X, he said, "The BJP government and its dormant departments have completely failed to maintain the Taj Mahal, the wonder that attracts tourists from all over the world."
Yadav went on to say, "There is a possibility of rusting of the metal of the urn on the main dome. Water is dripping from the main dome. There is news of plants growing in the dome. If the roots of trees like these grow, then the Taj Mahal may crack."
He also highlighted problems of monkey menace and water logging in the Taj Mahal complex.
"The Taj Mahal complex has become a sanctuary for monkeys. There is a problem of waterlogging in the Taj Mahal complex. The tourists are worried whether they should admire the Taj Mahal or deal with the problems," Yadav said, adding due to all these reasons, the country's image is tarnished at the global level.
Last week, the main dome of the Taj witnessed water seepage due to incessant rains but officials said there was no damage to the arched roof.
Yadav asked where crores of rupees of funds that come for the maintenance of Taj Mahal are going.
"The government should be a living and active example, not just a monument," he added.
