    First successful liver transplant in Uzbekistan signals medical advancement

    Patient and donor

    The recipient of the liver transplant was a patient who had been battling cirrhosis for an extended period. In a remarkable display of familial love and sacrifice, her sister stepped forward to be the donor.

    International collaboration

    The operation was a collaborative effort between Uzbek specialists and their colleagues from India. This international cooperation underscores the global commitment to advancing medical science and improving patient outcomes.

    Significance of liver transplants

    Liver transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves replacing a diseased or failing liver with a healthy one from a donor. It serves as the only option to treat liver failure, which can occur suddenly or due to other chronic medical conditions such as hepatitis, infection, alcoholism, biliary atresia, etc.

    Liver transplants: global perspective

    Liver transplants are the second most common type of transplant surgery after kidney transplants. In 2021, a record 9,234 transplants were performed in the United States, with 8,665 (93.8%) from deceased donors and 569 (6.2%) from living donors. In India, a leading country in liver transplant surgery programs, hospitals like Apollo Institutes of Transplant have performed thousands of successful liver transplants.

    Road ahead

    This successful liver transplant operation in Uzbekistan is a promising step towards establishing a robust liver transplant program in the country. As per the surgeon Professor Mirshavkat Akbarov, the number of patients with liver cirrhosis in Uzbekistan today is 5-6 per one thousand people. With this achievement, the country is well on its way to providing advanced healthcare to its citizens and reducing the need for patients to travel abroad for such critical procedures.
