Gowning Up

FACE the Challenge surgeon puts on his surgical gown after scrubbing for surgery. He has done so since 1995 at the National Hospital of Odonto-Stomatology (NHOS), Hcmc/Saigon, Cholon District 5, Vietnam, Southeast Asia.

 

He guided the lead surgeon in how to provide a tissue graft (difficult injury to address). It was done to the face of a motorcycle accident victim. Some of the most common facial trauma at this and other Vietnamese hospitals is from motorcycle accidents. As has remained true for decades, most of the motorcycle accident victims are male and the injuries are more commonly to the left side of the face.
