Chandigarh, February 15, 2019 - Six-year-old Suraj, the first patient at the Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER) to get a liver transplant from a live donor died on Thursday.
Suraj, hailing from Jharkhand, was suffering from end-stage liver disease when the transplant was done on January 24 this year.
With Ninati Pahadi, his 49-year-old grandmother donating part of her liver (which regenerates quickly) to Suraj, doctors were optimistic about the patient’s survival, joyfully announcing that the operation was successful after completion of the 18-hour transplant procedure.
