     我为腹裂新生儿做手术获得成功后，记者闻讯赶来对我进行采访。今天，利比里亚最大的报纸《Daily Observer》对我进行了报道。全文如下：

Chinese Pediatric Surgeon on Operations at JFK

    A Chinese Pediatric surgeon Dr.Gang Wang,has been telling the Daily Observer,in an exclusive interview,about some of the surgical operations he had performed on kids.

    Dr.Wang who has been at the John F. Kennedy(JFK) Medical Center in Sinkor for about six months,said since entering the Pediatric Section of the Hospital,he had performed about 40 surgeries,including inquinal and umbilical hernia,hydrocele,appendicitis and bowl perforation.Others included intussusception,bladder stone and gastroschisis.

    The last of the operations,gastroschisis,was recently performed on an infant who was born with his intestine outside.

    Gastroschisis is a birth defect in which an infant’s intestines stick out of the body through a defect on one side of the umbilical cord.

    Speaking about the operation,the Chinese medical doctor,who is part of a 12-person Chinese volunteers in the country,stated that the procesure to close the opening,which is usually 12 to 13 centimeters long,on the child’s stomach lasted an hour and a half.

    “He was only seven months and two weeks old when he was born;this means he was born premature and at birth he weighted 2.5 kilograms,”Dr.Wang disclosed.

     Giving his personal opinion about the health situation in the country,the Chinese volunteer said since entering the JFK Pediatric Section,he has observed that Liberia needs more medical doctors.He stated that in the surgical department at JFK,there were only three doctors,with whom he communicates regularly on cases that come to the department.

    As for the Pediatric Section,Dr.Wang indicated he is the only Pediatric Surgeon at the hospital but added that one Dr.Moses,who served as his assistant during the gastroschisis surgery,is capable of performing surgery on kids,as well.

    Another thing the Chinese medical doctor hinted was lack of enough beds for the Pediatric Section.”I see that more and more people bring their children for surgical procedures,but we can’t admit them because we do not have enough beds.Before my one year is over,I want to perform as many surgeries for more children before I go back,”he said.

    He operated on the little yet to be named,on January 7, 2010.

    Dr.Wang,however,praised the doctors and nurses at the nation’s only referral hospital.”The doctors and nurses here at JFK are hardworking.Because of their hard work,I am encouraged to work,too.”

    Jimama N.Myers,mother of the child with gastroschisis,confirmed that her son was born with his intestine outside and said she had lost hope that her son would have survived past the day of birth.”I am really thankful to the Chinese doctor for helping to save my son’s life,”she added.Her child was born January 6.

中国小儿外科医生在JFK医院做手术

    一名中国小儿外科医生王刚大夫在一个专访中对每日观察报谈到他为孩子们做的一些外科手术。

   王大夫已经来到位于辛考区的约翰.肯尼迪医疗中心（JFK医院）大约6个月，他说自从进入医院儿科以来，他已经做了大约40台手术，包括腹股沟疝、脐疝、鞘膜积液、阑尾炎、肠穿孔，其它还包括肠套叠、膀胱结石和腹裂。

    最后一个手术，腹裂，是最近为一名生后肠管在外的婴儿做的。

    腹裂是婴儿的肠管通过脐带旁的缺损突出到体外的一种出生缺陷。

    当谈到这个手术，作为到这个国家的12名中国志愿者之一的中国医生说这个手术操作是关闭孩子腹部的缺口，通常是12-13厘米长（记者搞错了，应该是2-3厘米），手术做了1个半小时。

   “他出生时只有7个月2周大，这意味着他是名早产儿，出生体重是2.5公斤。”王大夫说。

    当谈到他个人对于这个国家医疗状况的看法时，这名中国志愿者说，自从进入JFK医院儿科，他看到利比里亚需要更多的医生。他说在JFK医院普外科只有3名医生，他经常和他们就这个科的病例进行交流。

    对于儿科，王大夫说，他是医院里唯一的小儿外科医生，但是又说，在腹裂手术中作为助手的Moses医生也能够为小儿做外科手术。

    这名中国医生又指出另一件事，儿科缺乏足够的床位。“我看到越来越多的人们带着他们的孩子来做手术，但是我们不能收他们入院，因为我们没有足够的床位。在我一年服务期满之前，我想为更多的孩子做更多的手术，”他说。

    他在2010年1月7日为这个小不点做了手术。

    王大夫又称赞这个国家唯一的转诊医院里的医生和护士。“JFK医院这里的医生和护士们工作非常努力。他们的努力工作也鼓舞着我去努力工作。”

    腹裂患儿的妈妈Jimama N.Myers证实了他的儿子生后肠管外露，她说在孩子出生后的那天，她对儿子的生存失去了希望。“我真的非常感谢中国医生帮助挽救了我儿子的生命。”她说。她的孩子是1月6日出生的。
