Nguyen Duc Anh, 50, from Phu Dong Commune, is undergoing treatment at Hanoi Heart Hospital for infective endocarditis, severe mitral valve vegetation with significant regurgitation and severe heart failure.
According to Dr Le Quang Huy from the Department of Internal Medicine at Hanoi Heart Hospital, Anh requires urgent surgery to remove the infected tissue, repair the aneurysm, and repair or replace the mitral valve. The high-risk procedure is estimated to cost VND 120-130 million (approximately USD 5,200), which is far beyond the family's means.

Without timely intervention, the patient faces recurrent infection, progressive heart failure, and a very high risk of death, the doctor said. He hoped that through Dantri/DtiNews, more people would become aware of Anh’s condition and offer him support.
Anh’s wife, Le Thi Yen, 48, said that the couple had two children. Their eldest passed away in 2021 after years of struggling with mental illness, while the younger was born with a physical disability, has difficulty walking, and survives on social welfare support.
Yen recently underwent spinal and knee surgery and has yet to recover, but with no one else at home, she has had to shoulder the burden of caring for her husband in the hospital.
