    AbstractNepal is one of the 20 poorest countries in the world. Thus, medical care in Nepal is dependent on significant medical and financial commitment from within and outside the country. Dhulikhel Hospital - Kathmandu University Hospital (DH-KUH) was founded in 1996 by Prof. Dr. Ram and colleagues. Collaboration and support of many people and institutions are, in contrast to the experience in other hospitals of the third world, characterized by an extraordinary sustainability. The reason for this is the spirit lived according to the motto "best service for the poor". The structures in DH-KUH are influenced by a very close cooperation with a number of international (university) hospitals. Most of the DH-KUH departments have an amazingly high technical standard. Assuming this development and progress can be continued, a splendid future for DH-KUH can be predicted.
