Surgery and Its Results
Seyyed Mostafa Khademi, spokesperson for Yasouj University of Medical Sciences, explained that previously, patients from this region had to travel to other cities for treatment.

Khademi added: "This surgery was successful, and the child's condition is stable after the operation." He also mentioned that Dr. Mohammad Jafar Ghaempanah, the Executive Deputy and Head of the Presidential Institution, congratulated the surgical team on the success of this operation. This news is not only a sign of hope for the child's family but also for all residents of Dehdasht County.
The Importance of Local Surgeries
Considering that previously all major surgeries in this region were performed by transferring patients to other cities, conducting this operation within the county indicates significant advancements in medical services. Khademi added: "Transferring patients to cities like Shiraz took 5 hours, and during this time, the patient could face many dangers."
Now, with the success of this operation, confidence in the medical team has increased, and there is hope for performing more major surgeries at Dehdasht Hospital. Additionally, Khademi referred to the establishment of an advanced angiography department in the provincial center, stating that this initiative has helped reduce the need to transfer patients to other cities.
Overall, this success not only saved the life of a child but can also help improve medical services in this deprived region and instill hope for a better future in the hearts of the residents of this county.
