Porn is a 16-year-old who helps his family in the fields. He has two brothers and is the youngest in his family. Both his brothers are married. In his free time, he likes listen to music.
On December 21st, 2020, he was in a motor vehicle accident that caused an intertrochanteric (femoral neck) fracture of his femur. Porn went to a private clinic for treatment, but still his pain did not resolve. He has now come to Watsi’s Medical Partner Children’s Surgical Centre (CSC) and the medical team found that he needs an open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of his intertrochanteric fracture. It is difficult for him to walk and he is in chronic pain.
Fortunately, surgeons at CSC can help. On January 11th, Porn will undergo a fracture repair procedure, which will cost $465. This procedure will help him walk easily again.
Porn shared with us that he hopes that he can recover quickly and return to his job.

His doctors look forward to seeing his improvement when he returns for a follow-up visit in a few months.
