6-year-old Ian Baraka scheduled for groundbreaking maxillofacial surgery

Six-year-old Ian Baraka, who survived a banditry attack at the Meru-Isiolo border, is set to undergo a six-hour maxillofacial reconstructive surgery at Kenyatta National Hospital on Thursday, September 25, 2025. Struck by a stray bullet in December 2023, Ian will become the world’s first child to receive patient-specific implants designed to grow with him. The groundbreaking procedure offers hope not only to Ian but also to many others in need of such complex reconstructive surgery.
