Three arteries of Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Syed Khursheed Ahmed Shah are clogged, hospital sources said citing the angiography report results. Khursheed Shah underwent an angiography procedure at the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases (NICVD) in Sukkur on Thursday. His blood pressure had shot up and impacted his cardiac arteries, hospital sources said. The doctors have started medication for opening the clogged arteries, according to sources. The decision to conduct an angioplasty or bypass surgery will be made if medicines fail to open the clogged veins, sources said. Any further decision with regard to his treatment will be made by the medical board, hospital sources said. The medical report of Shah has been handed over to the officials of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), who will be submitted the same in the accountability court Sukkur on Monday. The PPP leader was shifted to the medical facility after he had complained of chest pain on October 27.
