Promoting the Life-Saving Power of Organ Donation through a Successful Pediatric Liver Transplant.
The patient had undergone a regular health check-up that revealed swelling in the liver. He was also beginning to experience blood in vomitus, along with stomach ulcers. A liver transplant was urgent.
A swap transplant happens when the first patient's close family member donates their organs (kidney or part of the liver) to the second patient. In return, the second patient's relatives donate their organs to the first patient, said a doctor.
The ability to consider multiple variables simultaneously allows for a more comprehensive evaluation of donor-recipient pairs, aiding transplant teams in making informed decisions.
Sometimes, organ donation is the only treatment for long-term illnesses like leukaemia or kidney failure.
