Emergency Skin Grafting by Dr Indraneel Dasgupta

This 45 year old man met with a road traffic accident with tissue loss in his legs.
His condition required plastic surgery. Generally these patients are referred to a plastic surgeon. A plastic surgeon may or may not be available during these times . Moreover very few patients can afford such a costly surgery .




The surgery was completed in our ED in 45 minutes by Dr Indraneel Dasgupta. And the patient was sent home on the same day.As the patient was very poor the Department took a humanitarian approach and he was charged a nominal amount(Rs 500 ) for the procedure .
Very few Emergency Departments in the world can exhibit such amount of efficiency.
We the proud of Dr Indraneel Dasgupta- He is the Sun of Emergency medicine in Kolkata.
