Her initial investigations showed that she was having anomaly in her kidney, which is called Horse Shoe kidney. In addition, she was having obstruction at the junction of pelvis and ureter (PUJ Obstruction). This problem requires surgery (Pyeloplasty).

The chief urologist at RG Stone, Ludhiana, Dr. Anand Sehgal (Mch, Urology) performed the procedure of Laparoscopic Pyeloplasty on 29th October, 2009. Conventionally, this surgery is being done through a large incision in abdomen which require prolonged hospitalization and painful recovery. However, surgery at our center was done laparoscopically through three small holes. Mrs. Tripta was discharged from hospital on 4th day in satisfactory condition. This is a technically demanding procedure and is considered to be an advanced laparoscopic urological procedure which is being done in very few centers in India.
