This advanced anatomical liver resection technique, which demands highly skilled surgeons and state-of-the-art equipment, marks a major advancement in Cancer Care in the region.
The bi-segmentectomy procedure was carried out by AOI Jammu's distinguished surgical oncology team, led by Dr Avinash Rajra and Dr Sujeet Bhat, with crucial support from the anesthesia team, including Dr Atul Sharma and Dr Khuram Malik. The surgery was performed on a 56-year-old male patient who had been diagnosed with liver cancer. Following a comprehensive evaluation, the patient was counseled on the benefits of the procedure, which was executed as a single-step operation. Dr Rajra and his team meticulously removed the tumor along with a margin of healthy liver tissue, ensuring a thorough and effective surgical intervention.
Harish Trivedi, CEO, American Oncology Institute, expressed, "This milestone underscores our commitment to providing world-class Cancer Care in every region we serve.

The procedure's success reflects our commitment to delivering top-tier Cancer Care and improving long-term outcomes for those battling early-stage liver cancer."
The patient's post-operative course was smooth, with no complications reported. He was discharged on the fifth day following surgery and is currently recovering well at home. The patient's family expressed their satisfaction with the outcome of the surgery and the care provided by the AOI Jammu team.
Dr Neeraj Bishnoi, RCOO, AOI North Region, added, "This landmark achievement is a testament to AOI's dedication to offering cutting-edge medical interventions that make a real difference in our patients' lives.
