Yakshini Mani – A Pediatric Heart Success Story
Yakshini Mani, a 10-year-old girl from Dharmapuri District, is studying in Class VI at a Government School. During a health camp conducted at her school, doctors suspected a cardiac condition and referred her for further evaluation. She subsequently attended a free cardiac screening camp conducted by MIOT Hospitals at Dharmapuri Medical College Hospital. Following the initial evaluation, she was referred to MIOT Hospitals for detailed investigations.
Further investigations revealed a Large Ostium Secundum Atrial Septal Defect (ASD), a hole between the upper chambers of the heart. Considering her condition and the risk of long-term complications, the medical team recommended an ASD device closure procedure to correct the defect.
The estimated cost of the procedure and necessary medical care was ₹2,00,000/-. However, Yakshini Mani’s father, Mr. Mani, works as a bus driver and earns approximately ₹20,000 per month. With his limited income and family responsibilities, arranging the required medical expenses was a significant financial challenge.
With the generous support of compassionate donors, the required funds were successfully raised, bringing immense relief to Yakshini Mani’s family and enabling her to receive the treatment she needed at MIOT Hospitals.
On 20 October 2026, Yakshini Mani successfully underwent an ASD device closure procedure at MIOT Hospitals. Following treatment and post-operative care, she made a good recovery and was discharged in good health on 21 October 2026. Her successful treatment marks an important milestone in her journey towards a healthier future, bringing immense happiness and relief to her family.
