Prof. Ahmed Ghoneim, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine at Tanta University and Chairman of the University Hospitals Board, announced a groundbreaking achievement by the young doctors of the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Tanta University Hospitals. The team successfully performed a microsurgical reattachment of a child's scalp after it was completely severed by the teeth of a wild dog.

The incident occurred when the child was attacked by the dog, resulting in the complete detachment of the scalp. Despite a six-hour delay in receiving medical attention, the surgeons were able to perform the delicate procedure, using advanced microsurgical techniques to reconnect the blood vessels and nerves with precision.
