Bundang Jesaeng Hospital Leads Global Sharing Medical Care...treatment of children with congenital diseases in Mongolia
Sep 15, 2025
Bundang Jesaeng Hospital is leading the global sharing medical practice.
A Mongolian Tuggledur Monghgal (male, 9) child was diagnosed with urethral, a congenital malformation disease, but it was not possible to operate in Mongolia because it was a difficult operation that required financial difficulties and high-level skills at home.
Bundang Jesaeng Hospital (Hospital Director Na Hwa-yeop) visited Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, in December 2023 to provide free consultation with the urology department, and selected Tuggledur Monggal children as candidates for sharing medical treatment to operate at the urology department at our hospital, but other patients who needed more urgent treatment were selected as beneficiaries and did not receive treatment. Since then, news has been reported that Tuggledur Monghgal children are not receiving any treatment, so the Bundang Jesaeng Hospital International Medical Center applied for the 2025 Korean Medical Sharing Medical Project promoted by the Korea Health Industry Promotion Agency, and in August, the surgery was successfully performed with the lead of Son Jeong-hwan, head of the Urology Department at Bundang Jesaeng Hospital.
The urethra is an innate abnormality in which the urinary urethra hole is located below the penis, not in a normal position, and surgical treatment is recommended between 6 and 18 months of age, and missing the appropriate treatment period can lead to various complications such as urinary tract infection, penile curvature, and decreased sexual function.
Children in Tuggledur Monghgal were suffering from frequent urinary tract infections and needed urgent treatment.
Sohn Jeong-hwan, head of the urology department at Bundang Jesaeng Hospital, said "It was a tricky operation that required delicate techniques to restore normal urination and genital appearance, but I'm glad to see the child smile because the operation went well successfully. I hope you grow up healthy and well in the future."
Surgery for the lower urethra requires reconstruction of the urethra directly, requiring high difficulty in urinary medicine and specialist experience.
Meanwhile, the Bundang Jesaeng Hospital International Medical Center has been visiting Kazakhstan, Russia, and Mongolia in person since 2017 to consult patients, and through the medical worker training project, medical personnel of various nationalities such as Uzbekistan receive training at Bundang Jesaeng Hospital. In particular, since 2022, various training programs have been conducted, including MOUs with Mongolian 4 hospitals to hold academic conferences, and efforts are being made to improve the quality of foreign patient care by introducing telemedicine and in-depth treatment systems.
