Surgery under siege.
In September of last year I accompanied a team of orthopaedic surgeons to Sarajevo in Bosnia. This followed an appeal from the doctors there, and was made through World Orthopaedic Concern. The purpose of our visit was two-fold. Firstly to write a detailed medical report highlighting the needs of the hospitals, and secondly to give support to the surgical and nursing staff.
