Deployment in Myanmar 2019
Charity
INTERPLAST Germany e.V.
Since our student days, we have been traveling to developing and war-torn countries once a year to enable people to undergo surgery who would not be able to afford it without the aid organization.
On this page you will find an overview
with reports and pictures of some of our missions.
INTERPLAST Germany e.V. is a non-profit organization that offers free plastic surgery operations in developing countries.
It was founded in 1980 by Prof. Gottfried Lemperle, then Head Physician of the Clinic for Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery, Reconstructive and Hand Surgery at Markus Hospital in Frankfurt am Main. This idea quickly caught on throughout Germany and Europe. INTERPLAST Germany alone has organized over 600 missions in recent years and is now active in over 50 countries around the world.
The patients treated suffer from facial malformations, cleft lip and palate, hand malformations, severe burn scars, tumors of the skin and soft tissue, defects following accidents or the consequences of war and other congenital malformations.
The costs incurred are financed by donations and the annual membership fee.
As part of our training in plastic surgery at Markus Hospital in Frankfurt am Main, we also took part in many aid missions.
