In addition, the unit has recently established the KSU Hand Surgery Program and it strives to lay the foundation stone of the Saudi Society for Hand Surgery.

Moreover, the unit is distinguished by scientific research as it annually publishes around 15 research papers and this year, it has won first prize in surgical research at the annual research conference of the Department of Surgery.

Plastic surgery and reconstructive surgery clinics are always overcrowded with patients and we strive to offer everyone the best treatment options out there. The unit also participates in diabetic foot shifts at the hospital.

Plastic surgery and hand surgery emergencies are numerous and the highest in the Department of Surgery due to the high rate of hand injuries in the Kingdom especially among children.

Furthermore, the unit treats burns and strives to expand the Burns Unit to include its own intensive care unit and treat more cases of burns. Every week, the unit admits numerous complicated cases referred by the Ministry of Health for reconstructive surgery and hand surgery including neurosurgery.
