The Otorhinolaryngology Service (ENT) of the University Hospital of Maracaibo (HUM) successfully completed a day of surgical interventions and microsurgeries for the benefit of six patients from the state of Zulia.

Under the direction of Dr. Oneida Osorio, the health personnel performed these specialized procedures during the recent medical day, with the objective of ensuring timely care and improving the comprehensive health of the Zulian population.

During the surgical operation, the specialists performed adenotonsillectomies on three pediatric patients to remove the tonsils and adenoids, as well as endoscopic laryngeal microsurgeries on three adults, a fundamental advance for the effective treatment of various conditions in the upper airways.

These free and specialized care actions are part of the public policies promoted by the national Government through the National Public Health System (SPNS), aimed at strengthening the decision-making capacity of the country's hospital network and providing direct well-being to Venezuelan families.
