Kolkata: Doctors at Medica Group of Hospitals, a city hospital have successfully operated upon a three-year-old toddler, who had sustained critical head injuries in a recent car accident.

The child was immediately rushed to a super-specialty hospital here, where a team of neuro and plastic surgeons performed the surgery on Rani on the same day.

"We had to treat the blood loss with transfusions and manage the wound carefully," Medica's Neurosurgeon, Vice Chairman and Director, Dr Laxmi Narayan Tripathy said.
