During the program, international specialists and hospital doctors directly examined 40 patients, conducted multidisciplinary consultations, and performed surgeries on 13 cases involving congenital deformities as well as patients suffering from complex residual conditions from provinces and cities across the country. Notably, many patients with recurrent cleft lip and palate conditions or severe craniofacial deformities were assigned to undergo specialized surgeries using advanced techniques to improve treatment outcomes and functional rehabilitation.

In addition to providing treatment opportunities for patients, the program also placed strong emphasis on training and technology transfer. ReSurge International specialists also collaborated in organizing professional exchanges, guided clinical practice sessions, and shared their experience in treating challenging cases with the hospital’s medical team. Through these activities, the professional competences of local healthcare personnel in maxillofacial and craniofacial plastic surgery continues to be enhanced, contributing to the gradual mastery of advanced surgical techniques at the local level.

According to the leadership of Hue Odonto-Stomatology Hospital, maintaining cooperation with international organizations not only helps patients gain access to specialized medical services but also creates valuable opportunities for healthcare professionals to learn, update their knowledge, and acquire new techniques.
