Pawan Kalyan, actor and Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, underwent a surgical procedure yesterday, drawing widespread public attention.
While news of his hospitalization quickly spread, details about the nature of the treatment were initially unclear.
It has now been confirmed that he underwent Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), a minimally invasive procedure used to treat chronic sinus conditions.
FESS is typically recommended for patients suffering from persistent sinus infections, nasal blockages, or inflammation that does not respond to medication.
The procedure involves the use of a thin, flexible endoscope inserted through the nostrils, allowing surgeons to view and remove obstructions in the sinus pathways without external incisions. This approach helps restore normal sinus drainage and improves breathing.
Sources close to Pawan Kalyan indicate that the surgery was successful and that he is currently stable.
Further updates on his recovery are awaited, with supporters and well-wishers expressing concern and hoping for his swift return to public life.
