PCB chief medical officer quits after Ihsanullah saga

The PCB's chief medical officer, Dr. Sohail Saleem, has resigned following a scathing independent report that criticized "delays in diagnosing fast bowler Ihsanullah's injury and inappropriate treatment prescription.

" Ihsanullah, who got injured last April and has been sidelined with what was initially diagnosed as an elbow injury, did not receive proper treatment for his right elbow pain and did not undergo appropriate surgery. Additionally, he never received the formal rehabilitation process required for his condition. These findings reveal significant medical failures within the PCB over an extended period, particularly concerning the treatment of injured fast bowlers.

The report, compiled by an independent three-member panel, also partially blamed Ihsanullah for "not complying with the prescribed rehabilitation plan," even as it acknowledged the inadequacy of the plan itself. Importantly, the panel stated that Ihsanullah's return to cricket is unlikely in the near future, recommending "aggressive physiotherapy for the right shoulder and elbow" and suggesting surgery if he does not recover within 12 months.

"Postoperatively, Mr Ihsanullah was not fully compliant to the rehabilitation protocols as alleged by the PCB officials," the report said. "He continues to have medial elbow pain along with shoulder dyskinesia. He has significant elbow stiffness for which surgery is not advised currently as per advice of national and international appropriate experts in the specialty shoulder and elbow.

"However, we strongly believe that in view of the talent possessed by Ihsanullah, he be physically assessed on his arrival to Pakistan whereby an appropriate rehabilitation plan be developed in a multidisciplinary fashion, including consideration of hydrodilation and the same be implemented to provide the best chance to the player to live up to his potential again."
