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 challenging case of Erythroderma in a young male patient.
A 31-year-old male presented to our dermatology OPD with severe redness and flakiness of skin all over the body. The symptoms had been present for two months, with a marked worsening in the last 15 days. After a detailed history, examination, and workup, the patient was diagnosed with Erythroderma – a serious condition where there is erythema and scaling over more than 90% of the body surface area. Despite having experienced similar skin problems in the past, the patient had never received a correct diagnosis and was unaware of the underlying dis...
A challenging case of Erythroderma in a young male patient.
A 31-year-old male presented to our dermatology OPD with severe redness and flakiness of skin all over the body. The symptoms had been present for two months, with a marked worsening in the last 15 days. After a detailed history, examination, and workup, the patient was diagnosed with Erythroderma – a serious condition where there is erythema and scaling over more than 90% of the body surface area. Despite having experienced similar skin problems in the past, the patient had never received a correct diagnosis and was unaware of the underlying disorder that could have led to Erythroderma.
Given the extensive nature of skin involvement and risk of serious complications, he was admitted for detailed evaluation and prompt management. A thorough workup was performed, and appropriate medical treatment was initiated. Over the course of 7–10 days, the patient showed remarkable clinical improvement; the skin lesions resolved significantly, systemic parameters stabilized, and he was safely discharged.
Most importantly, after nearly 3–4 years of recurrent but undiagnosed skin issues, the patient was finally diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. This accurate diagnosis not only explained his longstanding symptoms but also enabled the initiation of targeted treatment and counseling regarding long-term care and preventive measures. With this approach, the patient was able to move beyond temporary symptom relief toward effective disease control and an improved quality of life.

Total Hip Replacement in a Young Adult with Secondary Osteoarthritis of the Hip due to Sequelae of Childhood Septic Arthritis
Early and effective treatment of childhood hip septic arthritis is crucial to prevent or minimize long-term complications such as avascular necrosis, hip dislocation, osteoarthritis, and leg length discrepancy.
We present a case of a 30-year-old male patient suffering from secondary osteoarthritis of the left hip, with complete destruction of the joint over the past 20 years. He had septic arthritis of the left hip at the age of 9, which was only partially treated, resulting in long-term sequelae.
This was a challenging case due to the chronic arthritic hip and associated soft tissue contractures. We performed an uncemented total hip replacement with subtrochanteric osteotomy. The procedure proceeded as planned: the limb length discrepancy was corrected, and the patient was mobilized within 24 hours. He was discharged after four days, pain-free, and walking with support.
He is expected to achieve full weight-bearing and return to all activities of daily living within eight to ten weeks.

A new life donated to daughter-in law by mother in law
A 30-year-old female was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease after presenting with generalised weakness, loss of appetite, and intermittent vomiting. Investigations revealed impaired renal function, and she was started on haemodialysis through a catheter placed in the right side of her neck. She was advised maintenance haemodialysis three times a week.
She consulted our expert team of doctors including Dr Prajit Mazumdar, Dr Inderjit G. Momin, Dr Vaibhav Saxena, and Dr Kuldeep Agarwal at Yashoda Superspeciality Hospital, Kaushambi. They recommended renal transplantation as the most effective form of renal replacement therapy. Her transplant workup was initiated, with her mother considered as the first donor option.
However, her mother was found to have diabetes, her father had a cardiac condition, and her husband was not a compatible blood group. With limited donor options, her mother-in-law, who had a matching blood group, came forward to donate a kidney and save her daughter-in-law’s life.
After obtaining clearance from cardiology, pulmonology, gynaecology, and psychiatry, along with approval from the authorisation committee, the transplant was successfully carried out with ATG induction. Post-transplant, she maintained good urine output with steadily improving creatinine levels. She was discharged with a creatinine of 1.2 mg/dl. The donor also recovered well and continues to do fine.
