Dmitry Mikhalets





COLLECTED 30 013 hryvnias. Occluder spiral paid. OPERATED.

Recently, my son was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect - an open duct that needs to be closed urgently, as the child still has a disease - chronic tonsillitis, which can lead to infectious endocarditis. Until the age of 14, Dmytro had no health complaints, so a thorough examination was not performed. In September this year, the son of SARS, after a long illness, began to complain of joint pain. We consulted a traumatologist and a cardiorheumatologist.
Knowing that Dmytro had chronic tonsillitis and hearing heart murmurs, the doctors sent us for an ultrasound. That’s how we learned about our diagnosis - congenital heart disease. Since at the age of 14 the child’s heart is under the greatest load, we were asked to close the duct with an occluder-spiral to avoid further complications. They are ready to hold a free operation at the Amosov Institute. But the implant itself is an occluder, you need to buy it at your own expense. I am a single mother with a disability of group 3, unable to pay for the necessary device on my own, so I ask caring people to help my son. Olga Mykhalets, Khmelnytsky.
Head of the Department of Endovascular Treatment of Congenital and Acquired Heart Defects of the National Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery named after MM Amosova Igor Ditkovsky (Kyiv):"Dmitry needs to perform endovascular closure of the defect using an occluder-spiral. It is still possible to avoid open heart surgery. After a gentle intervention, the boy will quickly recover and return to normal life.

The supplier of the occluder-spiral issued an invoice for 30,013 hryvnias.

The open arterial duct is closed through vessels by means of a special implant of a spiral occluder. The operation is gentle and minimally invasive, lasting a little over an hour. The work of the cardiovascular system is restored, Dima is healthy and feeling well. The day after the operation, we visited and congratulated Dmitry and his mother on this wonderful event in his life.
