The Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital (RGGGH) in Chennai has carried out South India's first Sacral Neuromodulation (SNM) surgery. The procedure is used to treat urinary problems by placing an implanted device that regulates the nerves controlling the bladder. By sending signals to these nerves, the device helps restore better bladder function for patients who do not respond to routine treatment. The achievement at a state-run hospital highlights the growing capacity of Tamil Nadu's public healthcare system to offer advanced procedures.
