Janakpur,
Eastern Nepal.
Serious burns to arm and body at the age
of 2 years.
This is a huge case. Dr.Kiran K. Nakarmi,
MD, Director, Interplast Surgical
Outreach Program Department of Plastic
and Reconstructive Surgery Kathmandu
Model Hospital Kathmandu has offered to
operate this patient. Release the axilla
(arm) in the first stage. It requires
lots of skin graft from the thigh, and
do the elbow in second stage after three
months, but the patient will need to
stay in Kathmandu for almost a month. We
need a sponsor for the stay of this
patient in hospital.
Update 8 July: This boy
underwent surgery today. It took 3 full
hours but his arm was completely
separated from the side of the body. He
will need couple more surgeries to
straighten his elbow and ? Wrist. Not
sure if we can straighten his wrist
because the joint is out of place. |
