During three days (November 13-15) German surgeons together with surgeons from Ivano-Frankivsk successfully performed five reconstructive surgeries on patients with severe bone and vascular injuries.

In addition during the rehabilitation of the soldiers surgeons from Germany will always be in touch and advise on individual cases online.
