Unique ear surgeries performed in Turkistan hospital

Last year, the Turkistan City Central Hospital made a significant breakthrough in the field of regional medicine, for the first time starting to carry out one of the most modern high-tech operations in otorhinolaryngology - cochlear implantation, El.kz reports with reference to the regional akimat.

This project not only strengthened the hospital's status as a center for high-tech medical care, but also opened up new opportunities for patients with severe hearing impairments.

From July 2023 to November 2024, 26 operations were successfully performed in the hospital. The initiative started in July last year with three cochlear implants as part of master classes with the participation of professors from Turkey. And in the period from November 29 to November 30 of this year, 16 operations were performed in two days. During the interventions, implants from the world's leading manufacturers were used, and all operations were carried out free of charge within the framework of compulsory social health insurance.

Thanks to the international exchange of experience and the introduction of complex technologies, the qualifications of Turkistan doctors have increased. In particular, professors from Turkey shared their knowledge and practical experience with local specialists.

The hospital management plans to annually increase the number of operations, develop rehabilitation programs for patients who have undergone cochlear implantation, expand cooperation with foreign clinics, as well as increase the number of training seminars and master classes.
