Orthopaedics Surgery Without Borders (OWB) is a humanitarian association. It was founded in 2012 to promote the development of prosthetic surgery (knee and hip replacement) in emerging countries such as Laos and Cambodia or where medical intervention is most needed. “Medacta International is proud to support these missions driven by enthusiasm and passion through its “Medacta for Life Foundation”, by providing the tools to help deserving patients in disadvantaged countries.“ said Francesco Siccardi, Chief Executive Officer of Medacta International. “It is really satisfying to meet again all the patients who underwent surgery in previous missions and to see the surgical success. It encourages us to continue the promotion of these important initiatives.” said one of our surgeons.
