India's First Blood-Mismatch Liver Transplant Achieves Success

A little boy named Umar, who had a rare disease called MMA, needed a new liver.

Because no matching livers were available, doctors performed a special transplant where his mother donated part of her liver.

To help his body accept the new liver despite a blood type mismatch, they used special medicines.

Doctors from Rajagiri Hospital and AIIMS worked together to make this groundbreaking surgery successful.
