Pune, June 02, 2023 (TGN): Sahyadri Hospitals, the largest chain of hospitals in Western India, achieved another remarkable milestone with the successful completion of a liver and kidney transplant at Sahyadri Super Speciality Hospital, Deccan Gymkhana. The complex surgeries, performed through organ donation, were carried out by the expert medical teams led by Dr. Bipin Vibhute, Head of Liver and Multi-organ Transplant Department, and Dr. Atul Sajgure, Senior Consultant Nephrologist and Transplant Physician.
The liver transplant involved a 57-year-old recipient, who had been suffering from liver cirrhosis. The donor, a 49-year-old patient who unfortunately experienced brain death due to a Subdural Hematoma, presented a challenging case as a metallic stent was in the main blood vessel of the liver, reaching up to the heart. The medical team, led by Dr. Bipin Vibhute, successfully overcame these challenges in a 10-hour-long surgery. The recipient is currently recovering well, and close monitoring is being conducted to ensure optimal post-operative care and address any potential bleeding concerns.
In the kidney transplant, a 57-year-old recipient, who had been undergoing dialysis for the past 5 years, received a new lease on life. The donor's selfless act of organ donation has brought hope to countless lives. Dr. Atul Sajgure and his team performed the kidney transplant, with the recipient now showing positive signs of kidney function by passing 800-900 ml of urine every hour. This significant improvement in the recipient's health highlights the importance of organ donation and the impact it can have on enhancing the quality of life for individuals suffering from kidney diseases.
Dr. Bipin Vibhute, Head of Liver and Multi-organ Transplant Department at Sahyadri Hospitals, who played a crucial role in both the liver and kidney transplants, expressed his satisfaction with the successful procedures, stating, "This liver and kidney transplant case presented unique challenges that required meticulous planning and execution. The surgeries lasted for an extensive duration of 10 hours, highlighting the complexity and precision involved in performing multi-organ transplants. I am truly grateful for the exceptional medical capabilities and unwavering dedication demonstrated by our team, which played a crucial role in ensuring the success of these surgeries. Our primary focus remains on providing the best possible care to our patients."
Dr. Atul Sajgure, Senior Consultant Nephrologist and Transplant Physician at Sahyadri Hospitals, who led the kidney transplant, highlighted the importance of the need for organ donation, saying, "This kidney transplant not only offers a second chance to the recipient but also emphasizes the pressing need for organ donation worldwide. It is our collective responsibility to raise awareness and encourage more individuals to become organ donors. By signing voluntary organ donation forms, we can make a profound impact and save numerous lives."
Sahyadri Hospital acknowledges and expresses gratitude to the generous organ donor, a 49-year-old patient residing in Uttam Nagar, Shivane, Pune.
