INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
KATHMANDU: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, who was taken to Grande International Hospital today for a check-up, is under observation for the
time being.
PM Oli was taken to the hospital early today after health-related complications
It is to be noted that the Prime Minister had undergone a kindney transplant in 2007 in India Apollo Hospital.
According to our sources at
the hospital, Oli underwent a procedure (surgery) where a stent was placed to relieve any obstruction, after Dashain.
&It can be theorised
that the kidney failing markers might be due obstruction
If, even after the obstruction is released, the markers don&t normalise, it indicates that he may need new kidneys,& the source said.
The
doctors involved in his treatment were Prof Prem Gyawali (Urosurgeon), Prof Dibya Singh Shah (Nephrologist) and Prof Ram Kumar Ghimire
(Radiologist).
Meanwhile, after much speculation regarding the PM health throughout the day, the hospital finally released a statement in
the evening revealing that he has been admitted to the hospital and that his health is stable at the moment
PM Press Advisor Kundan Aryal had earlier relayed the information that PM Oli went to the hospital for routine check-up and he would be back
home within a couple of hours.
Co-signed by Medical Director Dr Chakra Raj Pandey and the Prime Minister personal doctor, Dr Dibya Singh
Shah, the statement further reads that Oli will be discharged late tonight or by tomorrow on completion of all required
investigations.
