The landmark performance of Dr. V. Mohan Reddy, an Indian-born doctor working in the USA, during February 2003 was the successful open heart procedure called arterial switch performed on an infant. This procedure is a complex surgery used to correct certain congenital heart defects in newborns. It involves switching the positions of the great arteries connected to the heart to restore normal blood flow and function. This achievement in pediatric cardiac surgery is considered a significant milestone in the field of medical science and has helped save the lives of many infants with congenital heart conditions.
