Syracuse team back from medical mission in Ghana


Operation Walk/Syracuse is just back from a mission to Ghana, where the surgical team replaced more hips, and fewer knees than on previous international trips.  The reason: sickle cell anemia, which affects more of Ghana's residents, causes erosion of the hip bone.  Patients on this trip were also younger than what the surgical team has seen on other trips.
