Invited experts are Prof. Jérôme Sales de Gauzy, head of the Orthopedic Department of Children’s Hospital of the Toulouse University, France; Prof. Jorge Knorr Gimennez, Head of the Orthopedic Trauma Department of the Sant Joan de Déu de Barcelona University Hospital, Spain; and Dr. Jean-Francois Trinchero from the Children’s Hospital of the Toulouse University, France.

On the first day of the drive, March 12, invited experts and the hospital’s doctors tested approximately 100 children and held consultations to make suitable treatment decisions.

According to Prof. Jérôme Sales de Gauzy, congenital malformation makes up a remarkable rate of defects. Thus, during the stages of their pregnancies, mothers should take screening tests, so that doctors could map out early treatment strategies.
