Hannah Joseph Hospital Limited

Clinical Achievements and Procedures

The Hospital has successfully performed three advanced neurovascular procedures through its Institute of Neuroscience and Department of Neurointerventional Radiology:

1. Carotid Artery Stenting

  • Procedure performed on an elderly male patient experiencing recurrent minor strokes
  • Patient condition: Severe carotid artery stenosis of approximately 90% with highly unstable plaque
  • Technology used: New-generation Emboguard balloon guide catheter
  • Benefit: Reduced risk of brain embolisation during stenting
  • Outcome: Procedure successful, patient recovering well

2. Flow Diversion for Complex Cerebral Aneurysm

  • Treated a complex, wide-neck, broad-based posterior communicating artery aneurysm
  • Technology used: FLOWVIA Flow Diverter
  • Supplier: Sourced from Health Bridge Mediwise (ImM)

3. Transulnar Artery Stenting

  • Procedure performed by accessing the vessel through the ulnar artery at the wrist
  • Patient profile: Complex vascular anatomy with significant cardiac and neurological comorbidities
  • Outcome: Patient's giddiness disappeared and mobility was fully restored post-procedure

Clinical Capabilities Demonstrated

These achievements demonstrate the Hospital's capabilities in:

  • Advanced neurointerventional procedures
  • Management of complex cerebral aneurysms
  • Stroke prevention techniques
  • Specialized vascular interventions for high-risk patients

Media Coverage

The clinical achievements were published in two newspapers dated October 28, 2026:

  • The Hindu (English daily)
  • Dinamalar (Tamil daily)

Newspaper clippings from both publications were enclosed with the regulatory filing.
