Vova helps Evgen

A year ago, we all raised funds to purchase special implants for Vova Babich. We have already bought and transferred everything necessary to the Institute of Neurosurgery for further operation. However, before hospitalization Vova became ill, he was urgently put in "OHMATDET". The boy had more and more complications, he spent almost a year in the hospital. When Vova was discharged, control examinations confirmed that the patient no longer needed the implant operation. However, purchased distracters can save the life of Parkhomenko Evgen!

Zhenia is 7 months old now, but he has already lived through a lot. His mother had complicated births, she had to do a caesarean section. On the face of the baby was a birth edema. The day passed, the swelling from the face began to disappear, and his mother noticed a certain asymmetry: the spout was slightly curved to the left. And then it became noticeable that the forehead was unnaturally oblique, and one eye was wider than the other. What is it?

To the question: "What's wrong with my son ?!" Mom heard just: "Do not worry and do not cry, he is not the same that other child". After that Zhenia and his mother were discharged home, and already in the city hospital, the baby was diagnosed with hypoplasia of the right frontal bone, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, spastic syndrome. And in the description of the X-ray: depressed fracture of the right parietal bone. This most of all frightened parents.

After that, there was another diagnosis: right-sided craniostenosis. This is a fairly rare disease in which a child is born with an abnormal shape of the skull. It occurs as a result of the fact that one or more seams of the skull merge too early. So it happened with Zhenya. Now it is necessary to eliminate hypertension in his skull, which will help to avoid serious consequences, and also increase the volume of the cranium, creating favorable conditions for the development of the brain in the future. Zhenya is growing, and the further, the riskier such an operation is for the health of the boy. To correct this defect it is possible only surgically, and it is advisable to do this until Evgen is 6-9 months old.

We are very happy that we can help little Evgen now!
