Thirty-five Vietnamese doctors who specialise in spinal orthopaedics across the country are attending a week-long training course jointly held by the Vietnam Orthopaedics Association (VOA) and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS).
During the course, starting on May 14, the trainees discussed diseases related to backbones, including spinal deformities in children.
Both trainers and trainees provided a diagnosis and consultation for 30 patients needing spinal column treatment and free surgery for five children patients with backbone deformities.
According to VOA President, Doctor Vo Van Thanh, patients with backbone diseases need to receive treatment as soon as possible. Patients who are only diagnosed at a later date may face difficulties during treatment and could be in danger during surgery.
Each operation costs between VND50-70 million, he added.
