AS A RESULT OF COMPLEX SURGERY PERFORMED IN VIENNA, EIGHT-MONTH-OLD
ARTUR HARUTIUNIAN'S ARM STARTS FUNCTIONING
YEREVAN, August 10 (Noyan Tapan). As a result of a complex surgery
performed in Vienna, the right arm of 8-month-old Artur Harutiunian
from Armavir started functioning. On July 8, he returned to Armenia
with his mother, Liana Harutiunian, and his brother. The surgery was
performed with the help of the Yerevan Office of the Austrian
Airlines. Being informed about the child's disease the Airlines sent
the child's medical history to Vienna. Surgeon Herbert Husley
performed free of charge the complex operation of 7,000 euros in the
local hospital. The Austrian Airlines also provided L. Harutiunian and
her two sons with free air tickets.
L. Harutunian is satisfied with the operation results. She told NT's
correspondent at Zvartnots Airport that before the operation the child
was not able to move his right hand. The significant progress became
evident only a month after the surgery. According to her, in Armenia
they would have to wait to have such an operation for at least 2
years. In 6 months A. Harutiunian and his mother will go again to
Vienna to undergo a final examination.
According to the Austrian Airlines, the company considers the regular
provision of such charitable help as its prerogative. "Support
provided by our Airlines to the Armenian public is also obvious in
other spheres, for example, in the organization of young
tennis-players tournaments, or in the organization of concerts by
young musicians or plays," said Werner Kruger, Manager of the Airlines
Yerevan Office.
