Vijayawada: Nearly 1,000 children received free surgery at Andhra Hospitals in Vijayawada. This initiative came after a team from Healing Little Hearts (UK), and Tollywood actor Mahesh Babu lent their helping hand.

For the past three years, Andhra Hospitals had been organised paediatric cardiac surgical camps by well-known surgeons across the world. The surgeons performed heart surgeries related to TAPVC, Tetralogy of Fallot, Glenn procedure and other complex heart defects.
