Free surgery for cleft lip – palate and facial deformities

On August 17th, the Provincial Dental Hospital, in coordination with Operation Smile Vietnam, conducted screening exams for children with abnormalities. This activity is part of the annual Operation Smile surgery program held in Thua Thien Hue.

The donated organ from a 65-year-old woman, who was relatively lightweight from Hai Duong; the time of cold ischemia during transport across Vietnam was minimized; and the need to dissect the entire heart and major blood vessels before transplantation... These challenges were overcome by the medical team at Hue Central Hospital (HCH), bringing life to a patient with end-stage heart failure.

On June 21, Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy announced that the American Heart Association (AHA) has just awarded the SILVER PLUS Heart Failure Achievement Award to Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital.

Everyone wishes for their child to be born healthy and adorable like any other child. However, there are still unfortunate cases of congenital defects. And then, the "angelic" hands, as if by magic, bring back smiles to the faces of these children, for their families, and for society as a whole.

Within the framework of cooperation between Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, Operation International (OI), the United States, and Design Capital Asia (DCA), doctors would perform surgeries for patients with cleft lip and cleft palate from September 11 to 15.
