Surgeon

In response to an invitation from the Republic of Kosovo, a Turkish medical organization arranged a voluntary surgical aid event in Pristina, performing a total of 53 procedures to restore the health of 22 Kosovar patients who were suffering from various ailments.

Prof. Dr. Afksendiyos Kalangos, whose name is among the "heart surgeons of the century," managed to save Merve's leg, which has been said to be "unrecoverable."

Merve Ay, 23, who lives in the southeastern province of Diyarbakır, struggled for 12 years with a vascular tumor that was detected in the heel of her left foot when she was only 8 years old.

A team of Turkish doctors have successfuly performed a separation surgery on two Algerian Siamese twins using a new technique for the first time ever, and they will soon be discharged from the hospital after fully recovery, says one of the surgeons who performed the procedure.

We mark the Day of the Bulgarian Doctor.

Traditionally, the Bulgarian Doctors' Union handed out the Doctor of the Year award.

Among all those who deserve the prizw this year, the medics awarded the maxillofacial surgeon Professor Nikolay Yanev, who performed an impressive surgery.

Doctors in Turkey are opting out of specializing in medical fields that require surgery to be performed, amid a rise in violence against medical personnel with several surgeons killed in recent months.
