WORLD PLASTIC SURGERY DAY 15TH JULY 2024


World Plastic Surgery Day: 15th July 2024

Sushruta (1000 BC) was the first Indian who is honored as the Founder of Plastic Surgery and in 2011 another Plastic Surgeon Dr Raja Sabapathy gave the concept of National Plastic Surgery Day which was accepted by the world forum as World Plastic Surgery Day. Since then more than 45000 Plastic Surgeons around the World come together on 15th July every year on a common platform with the sole aim of bridging the gaps in Awareness, Access and Affordability; ultimately improving lives through Plastic Surgery.

Dr Ashish Gupta, Editor of North Zone Association of Plastic Surgeons and Director Dept of Plastic Surgery, Deep Hospital said that earlier plastic surgery services were only available in medical colleges and corporate hospitals. By developing plastic surgery department in smaller hospitals and working in tandem with nursing homes there are 24 men and women practicing the craft of Plastic Surgery In The District Of Ludhiana, bringing facilities of managing Burns, Reconstructing Birth Defects, Scarless Healing of Hand and Facial Injuries, Post Cancer Reconstructions for a near normal life, Healing Chronic Wounds and off course making people Beautiful By Cosmetic Surgery.

Dr Gupta said, “A plastic surgeon treats each and every age group, all genders, each body part from the hair on your head to the tip of your toe nail and with every specialty of medicine and surgery. As vast is the scope of plastic surgeons’ clinical services similar are his/ her attributes: Empathy and Compassion, Commitment to Excellence, Creativity, Patient-Centric Approach, Integrity and Honesty and Scientific Curiosity driven for newer innovations.”

Dr Samarpan, CEO Deep Hospital said that at Deep hospital patients comes from all walks of life and from every corner of the state. The department of plastic surgery has over a period of just one year helped more than 1000 families in getting their wards back into the public life and that soon we shall be adding a comprehensive unit of lasers which shall cater to multiple problems that could not be addressed with surgery alone.

Congenital Back Deformity: Meningomyelocele

 Meningomyelocele: Congenital Back Deformity

Meningomyelocele is a congenital condition characterized by the protrusion of both the meninges and the spinal cord through a defect in the spinal column. This condition typically presents as a sac-like protrusion containing the spinal cord, nerves, and cerebrospinal fluid.


Children born with such defects are prone to numerous problems starting from the day of their Birth.

Apart from the open spinal canal (bony defect) there may be exposed spinal nerves, spinal cord coverings (meninges) with CSF leak. There may or may not be skin present over the defect or the skin may be ulcerated with risk of impending exposure.
