On August 14, in Moscow, the Indian doctor Sandeep Vaishya performed an operation on a Ryazan boy, Matvey, who was diagnosed with hydrocephalus. This is reported by the group "He needs you" in the social network "VKontakte".
“The mote's head (upper part) has been significantly reduced. Now the postoperative period, healing, and around January 2018, the final part of the operation is planned,”the message says.
The operation lasted four hours. The boy is currently in the ward under the close supervision of doctors.
The group indicated that Sandip is a world-class figure in the field of neurosurgery and that it was the “He needs you” group that made every effort to organize the arrival of an Indian doctor to Russia to perform an operation on a child. Moreover, this operation is free, despite the fact that in India for such operations Sandip takes from 50,000 to 100,000 dollars.
It is reported that Sandip was assisted by Russian neurosurgeons from the N. N. Veltisheva Dmitry Yurievich Zinenko and his team.
A few days later, there was another message about the operated child
“I got a little fever after the operation, but the operation is also the most complicated! Now everything is fine, already trying to get up on his knees! Active! He still needs toys. Not for kids, but for kids! Sound, to press, twist with your fingers."
Matvey has no parents, he is from the Ryazan orphanage.

Hydrocephalus is a disease characterized by excess accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the ventricular system of the brain. It accompanies many congenital and acquired neurological ailments. The main symptom is head enlargement.
Also, the disease manifests itself as headache, nausea, visual impairment, etc. Surgical treatment allows you to correct congenital anomalies of the cerebrospinal fluid system, remove intracranial formations disturbing the cerebrospinal fluid circulation, and improve the outflow of cerebrospinal fluid from the cranial cavity.
