Lakshmi Tatma
The story of Lakshmi Tatma, a two-year-old ischiopagus conjoined twin with eight limbs from a remote village in the district of Araria of the state of Bihar, India, brought worldwide attention to Sparsh Hospital.
Patil traveled to Bihar in September 2007 to bring Lakshmi Tatma for treatment at Sparsh Hospital in Bangalore.
Lakshmi Tatma went for surgery on 6 November 2007. This marathon surgery led by Patil constituted a large team of doctors, nurses, paramedical staff and which included the famous paediatric anesthetist Yohannan John. The operation lasted 19 hours and resulted in the successful separation of the parasitic twin from the body of Lakshmi Tatma.
This was the first time that surgery of this magnitude was conducted in India. The entire treatment process was carried out free of cost through the Sparsh Foundation.
