Getting shot at point blank but still able to survive? That’s the miraculous story of this 27-year-old man who was shot at point-blank range in the chest while asleep four years ago survived with almost a hundred pellets inside him because the projectiles didn’t touch the heart or lung or aorta. He was able to survive because the bullet didn’t touch any vital organs.
But the pellets, all 97 of them, turned into a time-bomb as the years passed, a source of infection that threatened the heart and aorta with potentially fatal results.
Aarif Hussain of Moradabad who is the victim visited many doctors in hope for a cure but no one dared to do the needful as they feared that an operation could destroy the surrounding organs.

Dr Mishra, who specialises in the surgical treatment of organs inside the thorax (chest), took up the challenge.
Theoretically, it looked like an impossible task. I even told the patient that there was a likelihood of death on the table. But he was willing to take a chance, which gave me the confidence to go ahead,” the surgeon said. Surgery to remove 97 pellets the size of papaya seeds from the chest cavity is not easy.
The doctor said that such surgeries are of high risk and not everyone takes it up.
