Discover the inspiring 'Success Story' of a 59-year-old Buddhist Monk, Sayadaw U Wanita, from Burma who received a life-saving Combined Liver and Kidney Transplant By
Dr. Shailendra Lalwani at Metro Hospital, Faridabad.
The patient, who was suffering from chronic liver disease (leading to jaundice and ascites) and chronic kidney disease (requiring long-term dialysis), was successfully treated by Dr. Shailendra Lalwani, Director & HOD - Liver Transplant, HPB & GI Surgery.
The monk's nephew served as the liver donor, providing 60% of his liver for the procedure. The surgery was highly successful, and the patient was discharged on the 14th day—considered a very early discharge for such a combined procedure. Sayadaw U Wanita expresses his heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Lalwani and the entire care team at Metro Hospital for their dedicated care.
Watch to learn more about this complex dual transplant and the patient's remarkable recovery.
