We would like to inform you that on January 9, 2023, in the conditions of the private clinic “Medclinic”, the process of reconstructive and restorative treatment of the defect of the left heel bone of Serhiy Lapiychuk began. The first stage was completed – red bone marrow and a fragment of the fibula bone were collected. From this biomaterial, mesenchymal stem cells and periosteal cells will be isolated and then scaled to the required amount. A 3D print of Serhiy’s left heel bone fragment together with the talus bone was also made and a 3D model of the insufficient heel bone fragment was created. Based on this model, heel bone defect spacers of different lengths will be printed on a 3D printer. These spacers will be used during the second stage of treatment when adapting the skin flaps in the heel area. On January 12, Serhiy was discharged from the clinic for outpatient treatment.
The cost of this stage of treatment was UAH 282,225. Financing of this stage was carried out through the “ProBONE” charitable foundation.
Serhiy is scheduled to undergo the second stage of treatment approximately 4-5 weeks after the first stage. During this stage, adaptation of the skin flaps of the heel area is planned. At the same time, heel bone defect spacers of different lengths will be used. With the help of these spacers, the optimal size of the graft will be determined, which will correspond to the soft tissue component of the heel area. Also, during this stage, it is planned to start the formation of the recipient bed and with the help of the Ilizarov apparatus, fix the left foot in the position of plantar flexion.
The cost of the second stage is UAH 122,824. (approx. 3450 USD or EUR).
We ask all concerned people and organizations to participate in the collection of funds for the treatment of the consequences of Serhiy’s left foot combat wound. Thanks to your donations, Serhii will be able to receive the necessary treatment and restore the supporting function of his left leg and the function of walking. Your donations will allow Serhiy to avoid disability and return to a full life.
You can transfer the donation to the bank card 5168 7574 0623 5681 Serhiy or use the websites of the charity foundation “ProBONE” marked for the treatment of Lapichuk Serhiy Petrovych:
