A medical-surgical team led by Dr. Adel Al-Hajj, consultant orthopedic and joint surgeon at the Modern American Hospital in the capital, Aden, was able to save the hand of a young man in his thirties after suffering a very serious injury.

The injury, which was concentrated in the “hand and left elbow joint,” caused damage to the skin, tissues, and ligaments, in addition to the “tendons” responsible for the movement of the fingers.

As soon as the case arrived at the hospital, the medical team began performing a delicate surgery to restore the hand and preserve its function, which was a complete success.

This injury is considered one of the conditions that previously led to the loss of the affected limb. However, thanks to God Almighty, and the presence of specialized medical competencies, the surgical team was able to save the hand and preserve its functions, which represents a major achievement in treating complex cases.

It is worth noting that this “medical achievement” is not the first in the record of the Modern American Hospital - Aden, but rather it is one achievement in a series of major medical achievements that the hospital has achieved since it opened its doors, as it has performed - and is continuously performing - various qualitative and complex operations in various areas.
