Multiple opinions were sought from experts in US and Europe, before Dr Peter Giannoudis, chairman of Academic Department of Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Leeds, was flown in from Britain to deal with Anahita’s complex case.

According to HN Reliance Hospital’s CEO Dr Tarang Gianchandani, Anahita is under the supervision of a team of 20 multidisciplinary doctors.

Her husband Darius, who suffered spine injuries, multiple rib fractures and jaw fracture, is stable and continues to be under observation.

“He will need facial reconstruction. We also need to address his spine and other injuries,” said a doctor treating him.
