Urology surgeon Yehya Al-Khafaji explains: “The patient had a tumor in his bladder and a hernia, he was also suffering from heart problems, hypertension, and diabetes. It was a big challenge to stabilize his health condition during the surgical intervention and Dr. Osama Issa decided to administer regional anesthesia. We removed the tumor and repaired the hernia.
