Sohag University Performs Risky Child Surgery
A medical team from Sohag University successfully performed a precise surgery on an 11-year-old boy who had paralysis in his arm resulting from an injury to the brachial plexus. Brachial plexus injuries are among the complex procedures, taking about 7 hours and utilizing advanced microscopes. The hand surgery unit at Sohag University's Hospital, established in 2014, is among the leading centers providing such surgeries free of charge through health insurance or government funding, despite their high cost. Additionally, the university president advised against pulling the patient during transport, recommending that the neck and limbs be immobilized to prevent complications such as paralysis or death.
