Additional Information: The protocols of the Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) Amman surgical project were approved within the framework of a formal agreement between MSF, the Jordanian Red Crescent, and the Jordanian Ministry of Health. The present study involved the analysis of data collected for monitoring and evaluation and therefore satisfied the criteria for reports using routinely collected programmatic data, set by the MSF independent Ethics Review Board in Geneva, Switzerland.
