Kumush needs radical vascular surgery!

Kumush was born last November with a complex congenital heart defect—a common arterial trunk. This means that instead of two vessels providing normal blood flow, she now has a single, common arterial trunk, causing blood to mix and putting the heart under increased strain. From the first days of life, the girl's condition was critical: respiratory failure and signs of hypoxia. Kumush was urgently transferred to the cardiac intensive care unit. Doctors had to perform palliative surgery—stenosis of the pulmonary artery—to reduce the strain on the heart and stabilize her condition. Currently, her condition remains serious but stable. The underlying defect has not been corrected. Further treatment requires radical surgery. Doctors will need to restore normal blood flow and separate the vessels. This complex intervention is aimed at correcting the heart defect and improving its function. Let's support little Kumush on this journey!
