Multidisciplinary Leadership at Maa Kauvery Hospital
At the high-level clinical symposium organized by Maa Kauvery Hospital (Kauvery Hospital Radial Road, Kovilambakkam), Dr. Raghul M was invited as the lead expert surgical panelist addressing the management of complex pediatric renal and urological anomalies. Collaborating with senior pediatric nephrologists, radiologists, and neonatologists, Dr. Raghul M formulated multidisciplinary clinical consensus pathways for evaluating and managing antenatally diagnosed hydronephrosis, vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), and multicystic dysplastic kidneys.
Controversial Dilemmas: When to Operate vs When to Observe
The symposium tackled contentious clinical dilemmas: when to operate versus when to observe an infant with an anteroposterior renal pelvic diameter (APD) greater than 15mm, the comparative efficacy of endoscopic STING (sub-ureteric Deflux injection) versus open or robotic extravesical ureteric reimplantation in Grade IV/V reflux, and the role of prophylactic antibiotics. Dr. Raghul M’s contributions emphasized objective, serial MAG-3 renogram interpretation to prevent unnecessary surgery while never allowing silent loss of split renal function.
