Turkmen doctors performed orthopedic surgery using the Pemberton method for the first time

The first orthopedic operation in Turkmenistan using the Pemberton method was performed on a 5-year-old resident of the Lebap region at the Scientific and Clinical Center for Maternal and Child Health. The news about this is reported by the newspaper "Neutral Turkmenistan".
In May last year, the German doctor of the Dritter Orden clinic, Professor Vincent Frimberger shared Pemberton's surgical method for complex diseases of the hip joint with the Turkmen specialists of the center. In addition, German colleagues exchanged experience and successfully introduced an innovative method into the practice of their Turkmen colleagues.
It is worth noting that the young patient is under the care of the Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Care. The Foundation donated to the capital's center a set of surgical instruments necessary for the operation.
On the same days, the surgeons of the International Cardiology Center performed 10 heart surgeries, neurosurgical, orthopedic surgeries for children with congenital diseases of the musculoskeletal and central nervous systems. The youngest patient was 3-month-old Aymelek Maksadova from the Lebap city of Gazochak.
The postoperative condition of the children is stable. All of them are under the patronage of the Foundation, from which more than 140 medical operations have been carried out since 2021, and for 50 children - medical examinations with free purchase of necessary drugs.
