Surgery • Dr. Benae 🇨🇲
⚠️sensitive content ahead.
Meanwhile in the operating room...
Dr. Jean Louis Benae is operating on a 12-year old girl suffering from a Pediatric Congenital Malformation.
She has a large cyst growing on her spinal cord that is compressing her spine and causing severe pain. She has been unable to walk for the past 4 years.
Dr. Benae is performing a thoracic laminectomy to remove a portion of the vertebral bone called the lamina.
He will then proceed with an intra-spinal cyst excision to remove the cyst and hopefully provide our young patient with the necessary relief.
She has been seeking a surgical solution for many years and her father has been unable to find a surgeon willing to take on this delicate procedure.
We are very happy that she found her way to us. This is a new beginning for her.
