Doctor Mykhailo Saulyak from Odesa, Ukraine, took second place in an international competition during the European Congress of Microsurgeons. In recognition of his success, the Ukrainian specialist received an educational grant.
Mykhailo Saulyak works at Odesa City Clinical Hospital No. 10. The doctor presented his work and won an award among the world’s leading specialists in reconstructive surgery.
The organizers have been holding this medical competition for 20 consecutive years. Each year, an expert jury reviews the works of participants from around the world and selects only five finalists.
The specialist now has about five years of experience in reconstructive surgery. Every day, he operates on military and civilian patients after Russian attacks and restores the bodies of cancer patients. The doctor regularly performs extremely complex interventions and sometimes saves the limbs of fighters for 11 hours straight.
