Mission Goals

Team Spain will head to Tanzania for the first time in October. Given the Operation International's local partnerships in the country, the team hopes to perform more complex cases, including colon tumors and hiatal hernias. The team will also bring a gynecologist this year to help with uterine fibroids, ovarian tumors, and more.
