Transplanting liver is more affordable now
Doctors achieved a remarkable victory when they discharged a patient at the KEM Hospital in Parel. They conducted a liver transplant at the civic hospital a month ago on 27 year old Ulhas Chaudhari. The hospital was almost like a second home for him.
The mechanical engineer from Jalgaon, Ulhas was diagnosed with autoimmune hepatitis. This is a condition where the immune cells attacked and damaged his liver. He was in a state of pre-coma situation because of liver failure. Sashikant, his father donated his liver’s right robe for his son.
Ulhas said on the last day of his stay at the hospital, “I was scared to undergo this liver transplant at first, but my father convinced me and my fear vanished.” He also said in an emotional tone that he considered himself very lucky to receive all the support from his family and doctors at KEM.
The doctors at the hospital said that they were now confident of this procedure and will not stop with just one such transplant and have plans to make it a regular and ongoing program.
