LAHORE — The Pakistan Kidney and Liver Institute and Research Centre (PKLI) has successfully performed two additional liver transplants, with procedures completed on October 12 and 13.
In the first procedure, a father from Bannu donated part of his liver to his daughter. In the second, a husband from Rawalpindi donated part of his liver to his wife.
Both transplants were performed under the leadership of Professor Dr Faisal Saud Dar, Dr Ehsan-ul-Haq and Dr Bilal Ahmed.
According to the report, a donor’s liver can regenerate over approximately three months following a partial liver donation, gradually returning towards its normal size and function.
PKLI had previously completed two additional liver transplants and one kidney transplant, adding to its recent transplant achievements.
