A patient from Bahrain traveled to Istanbul seeking relief from thoracic outlet syndrome, a condition that had severely impacted her ability to live a normal life. She had previously undergone an unsuccessful surgery in Bahrain, leaving her searching for a specialist who could provide effective treatment.
After consulting with Dr. Kamran Aghayev, her condition was thoroughly evaluated, and the underlying issues were explained in detail. Surgery was arranged to address the root cause of her symptoms. Within 24 hours of the operation, she experienced remarkable improvement, returning to her normal life and feeling fully satisfied with the results.
Thoracic outlet syndrome occurs when nerves or blood vessels in the space between the collarbone and first rib are compressed, causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms or shoulders. This condition can significantly affect daily activities and quality of life. The compression can result from various factors, including anatomical abnormalities, injuries, or repetitive movements, leading to symptoms such as tingling, burning sensations, and restricted range of motion in the affected areas. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial as prolonged compression can lead to neurological deficits.
Thoracic outlet decompression surgery involves relieving pressure on compressed nerves or blood vessels by removing or adjusting anatomical structures like the first rib or surrounding tissues. One advanced approach is the PURED Procedure, developed by Dr. Kamran Aghayev, which offers a technique for complete removal of the first and accessory ribs, ensuring thorough decompression without nerve or vessel manipulation. This method has shown high efficacy and safety, reducing the risk of recurrence and complications associated with traditional surgical techniques.
