A multidisciplinary surgical team led by Prof. Dr. Fareed Ullah Khan Zimri has successfully completed a complex corrective spinal surgery on a 20-year-old male patient suffering from rigid kyphoscoliosis at ZIMRI Orthopedic Hospital in Islamabad. Alhamdulillah, the patient is now recovering well under close postoperative care and monitoring.
The operation demanded meticulous planning and unwavering teamwork. The surgical team included Prof. Dr. Abdul Qadir Khan Afridi alongside other specialists, with Dr. Asif Jatoi coordinating the procedure and Dr. Kaleem Safdar providing accurate and continuous Intraoperative Neuro Monitoring (IONM). The anesthesia team was also pivotal in ensuring safe and stable patient monitoring throughout the complex spinal surgery.
This achievement has been widely welcomed within Pakistan’s medical community as evidence of the country’s advancing capabilities in specialised care. Colleagues and well-wishers sent messages of congratulations, recognising Prof. Zimri as a leading figure in orthopaedic and trauma surgery known for his humility and dedication to patient care.
The successful outcome at ZIMRI Orthopedic Hospital highlights the importance of precision, coordination and modern intraoperative support in complex spinal surgery and marks a proud moment for Islamabad’s healthcare sector as it continues to expand advanced spinal and orthopaedic services locally.
