Kenyans can now rejoice after a local hospital successfully conducted its first brain surgery. Dr. Henry Mugendi, the lead surgeon at The Embu Level 5 Hospital, said the two-hour long surgery was conducted by four doctors and six assistants on a 52-year-old man who had a tumour in his head.
We are happy with the process and expect the patient to make a full recovery,” Dr. Mugendi told media personnel. The hospital says plans are underway to carry out a kidney transplant on a 16-year-old student in March.
