Dhruvika, the youngest Indian to undergo liver transplant

Brave Dhruvika has finally won the battle against deadly Citrullinemia with the help of his grandmother. Dhruvika was diagnosed with Citrullinemia just after her birth. Now she has been gifted a new life with a liver transplant,the liver was donated by her grandmother. Now Dhruvika has become the youngest in the country to fight Citrullinemia with a liver transplant. Citrullinemia is an autosomal recessive urea cycle disorder that causes ammonia and other toxic substances to accumulate in the blood. Since the substances also accumulate in the urine, the disorder can also be called citrullinuria. It is  a life-threatening disease in which the proteins do not get broken because of the deficiency of an enzyme. In such circumstances, the levels of ammonia become very high. Ammonia is one product that can cross the blood brain barrier, causing the brain cells to swell up and leading to other grave problems too. Dhruvika was born on February 8, 2013 at Cloud Nine Hospital in B...

Minor undergoes rare liver transplant

In a rare case, a 10-year-old boy suffering from liver failure got a fresh lease of life after doctors innovatively transplanted a portion of his mother's liver into him. This was not a standard transplant as the mother was found to be unfit for donation due to an aberrant anomaly in her hepatic vein. But with the boy's liver condition deteriorating rapidly, an urgent liver transplant was advised to increase his chances of survival. Incidentally, only the mother's blood group matched with the patient's group. With no options left, the surgeons at Global Hospital came up with innovative means of both extracting the liver from the donor and also implanting into the recipient with minimum risk. "The mother's left portion of the liver was implanted into the child and the right hepatic vein of the child was used to reconstruct the middle vein," said Dr Thomas Cherian, liver transplant surgeon of the hospital, who performed the surgery. Both the mother...
