The Department of Pediatric Cardiac Sciences at Yashoda Medicity and Yashoda Super Speciality Hospital, Kaushambi offers comprehensive care for children with heart diseases, from prenatal diagnosis to adulthood follow-up. Pediatric cardiology focuses on understanding the anatomy and function of the normal heart, as well as detecting and treating abnormalities that develop before or after birth.
With congenital heart disease affecting 8–10 per 1,000 live births and 30–50% of these requiring intervention within the first year, our department addresses an urgent need for quality, affordable, and accessible care.
Our multidisciplinary team, comprising pediatric cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and critical care specialists, works in harmony to provide seamless preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care. Leveraging medical, surgical, and non-surgical (percutaneous) interventions, we aim to ensure that children with heart disease not only survive but thrive, with 75% of children with critical heart disease now able to live healthy lives thanks to modern advances.
Our paediatric cardiology unit provides comprehensive care for children with heart conditions, beginning as early as the fetal stage and continuing into adulthood. The team manages the full spectrum of congenital heart diseases as well as acquired conditions such as rheumatic heart disease, Kawasaki disease, MIS-C, Marfan syndrome and Long QT syndrome.

A 4-year-old, 11 kg child was brought to the Department of Pediatric Cardiac Sciences at Yashoda Medicity, Indirapuram, with complaints of bluish discoloration of fingernails and toes, poor weight gain, easy fatigue on walking, and recurrent hospital admissions.
Clinical evaluation revealed an oxygen saturation of 75%, prompting further investigations including echocardiography and CT pulmonary angiography.
The child was diagnosed with Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease known as Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), with additional apical muscular VSD and a hypoplastic pulmonary annulus.
The patient underwent open-heart surgery called Intracardiac Repair, including closure of multiple VSDs with a transannular patch over the neopulmonary valve. The procedure was led by Dr. Abhinavsingh Chauhan, Consultant Pediatric Cardio-thoracic and Vascular Surgery. Advanced post-operative care in the Pediatric Cardiac ICU was uneventful, and post-operative echocardiography confirmed a successful repair.
The child was discharged in a stable and ambulatory condition on the 5th post-operative day, with oxygen saturation improving to 99%. This case reflects Yashoda Medicity’s expertise in managing complex pediatric cardiac conditions, combining cutting-edge surgical techniques with specialized intensive care to ensure safe, life-transforming outcomes for children.

A challenging Case of renal transplant with a history of >22 units of blood transfusion and class 1 DSA positive
A 26-year-old male was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after developing generalised weakness and loss of appetite. Investigations revealed impaired renal function with a creatinine of 12 mg/dl and haemoglobin of 5 g/dl. He was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of his neck and advised AV fistula creation with maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.
Despite regular dialysis, his anaemia persisted and he required multiple blood transfusions (more than 22 units over three months) even while receiving erythropoietin and iron therapy. Anaemia workup revealed occult blood in the stool, and upper GI endoscopy confirmed peptic ulcer disease.
He consulted our team of nephrologists (Dr Prajit Mazumdar and Dr Inderjit G. Momin) and urologists (Dr Vaibhav Saxena and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal) at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospitals, Kaushambi, where renal transplantation was advised. His mother, who had a matching blood group, was identified as the donor. However, transplant workup revealed donor-specific antibodies on single antigen bead testing (Class I) with an MFI greater than 2500 on multiple beads, most likely due to the multiple blood transfusions. This significantly increased the risk of acute rejection in the immediate post-transplant period, making the case high-risk.
After thorough counselling regarding risks, he underwent desensitisation with two sessions of plasmapheresis and IVIg to reduce the donor-specific antibodies. He then successfully underwent renal transplantation with ATG induction. Post-transplant, he maintained good urine output with steadily improving creatinine levels and was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl.
He continues to do well on outpatient follow-up.

An International patient from Myanmar with Mitral Regurgitation, pulmonary hypertension and low ejection fraction-35% underwent successful transplant
A middle aged male was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease when he developed generalized body weakness, puffiness of face and swelling of legs with nausea, intermittent vomiting . On Investigations, he was found to have deranged renal function with urea-300 mg/dl,creatinine of 15 mg/dl, hb-9 mg and was subsequently started on hemodialysis via catheter inserted in right side of neck.
He subsequently visited India where he consulted our expert team of doctors-Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Inderjit G Momin,Dr Vaibhav Saxena and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal at Yashoda superspeciality Hospital, Kausambi who advised her to under renal transplant as it is the best form of renal replacement therapy. His Transplant workup was subsequently started and donor was wife and blood group was same.
However on transplant work up, it was found that he had Mitral Regurgitation, pulmonary hypertension and low ejection fraction-35% which increased his peri operative risk. Subsequently he was started on medicines and decongestion was done with diuretics and intensive hemodialysis. Subsequently renal transplantation was done after obtaining cardiology clearance with moderate risk and explaining the risk.
He underwent renal transplantation with Solumedrol and ATG induction. After transplantation he had good urine output with decreasing creatinine and was subsequently discharged with creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl . After transplant his pulmonary hypertension decreased and mitral regurgitation decreased which proves renal replacement therapy in form of transplant leads to improvement of cardiac condition. He is doing well on OPD follow up even today, 1.5 year after transplant with stable graft function and enjoying his life in myanmar.
