Power Outage Causes Delay in womb Operation

While doctors at the Wathupitiwala Base Hospital were operating on a forty-five-year old woman to remove her womb, all of a sudden power supply was interrupted. As a result the woman was forced to wait for one and half hours with her abdomen open for the operation to be completed.

It was after one and half hours that the electricity supply was restored. The dedicated doctors had stayed by the operation bed looking into the needs of the patient to make sure her condition remained stable.

The operation was successfully completed after the power supply was restored and everything ended well for all concerned.
