Quang Ninh City General Hospital performs successful kidney transplant
Doctors at Quang Ninh City General Hospital successfully performed a kidney transplant on September 17, following the death of a 45-year-old man. The donor, who suffered fatal multi-trauma injuries from a traffic accident on September 16, was declared brain-dead, leading his family to consent to organ donation.
The recipient is a 33-year-old individual from Quang Yen who had been suffering from end-stage chronic kidney disease and required dialysis three times a week for two years. The surgery was conducted with technical support from specialists at Viet Duc University Hospital.
This procedure marks the third kidney transplant performed at the hospital, bringing the total number of successful kidney transplants at the facility to six. Medical officials noted that the success of the operation demonstrates the hospital's growing capacity to manage advanced specialized medical techniques.
