On October 13-14, international experts screened and operated on more than 100 children with congenital malformations and musculoskeletal diseases.

This is part of the annual international cooperation plan of Saint Paul General Hospital (Hanoi) to improve the quality of diagnosis and treatment, and facilitate the exchange of professional experience with the world's leading medical experts.

Master, Doctor, CKII. Nguyen Minh Duc - Head of the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of the Upper and Lower Limbs (Xanh Pon General Hospital) - said: Treatment of congenital malformations is still a big challenge, especially when many children come to the hospital with malformations that have seriously affected their development and life.

"Early screening and timely intervention are key factors in treating complex malformations. However, resources and expertise from international experts will help us improve our treatment capabilities, especially for complex cases," Dr. Duc shared.

In this program, a team of international experts including 6 leading doctors in the field of pediatric orthopedics from Spain, the US and China will participate in consulting, consulting and performing surgery on difficult cases.

Dr. Francisco Soldado - Head of the Department of Pediatric Orthopedics at Vall d'Hebron Hospital (Barcelona, ​​Spain) - led the team of experts. Joining him were renowned experts such as Dr. Javier Buendia Perez from Madrid (Spain), and Dr. Shen Xiaofang from China. These are all well-known figures in the field of orthopedics and pediatric surgery.

According to the representative of Xanh Pon General Hospital, this is an opportunity for the hospital to update the most advanced treatment techniques in the field of pediatric orthopedics. In particular, consultation and surgery on complex cases with a team of international experts will help domestic doctors have the opportunity to learn and apply specialized knowledge to treatment practices in Vietnam.

"Treatment of deformities such as brachial plexus palsy, upper limb deformities and other musculoskeletal deformities requires not only high technical skills but also meticulousness and deep understanding of anatomy.

We are honored to cooperate with leading experts like Dr. Soldado and his colleagues, which not only benefits the children but also helps the hospital's medical team improve their skills," emphasized Master, Doctor, Doctor Nguyen Minh Duc.

In addition to examination and surgery activities, doctors from Xanh Pon General Hospital and international experts also organize professional exchange sessions, update new treatment methods and discuss difficult cases.

The new knowledge and techniques shared in these seminars will contribute to improving the quality of treatment for pediatric patients at the hospital, while strengthening long-term cooperation with international partners.
