Liver transplantation is one of the most complex operations in modern surgery. However, thanks to the high qualification and coordinated work of the specialists of the A. Syzganov National Research Institute headed by Professor B. Baimakhanov, the operation in the region was successful.
Patient Nurmetova Ulyana, 48 years old, suffered from cirrhosis of the liver. Since 2019, he has been under the supervision of a gastroenterologist, diagnosed with class B viral cirrhosis according to the Child-Turcotte-Pugh classification. He received outpatient and inpatient treatment. The disease was complicated by portal hypertension, edema, and hypersplenism syndrome, which complicated the patient's condition. Despite long-term treatment, his condition deteriorated, and a liver transplant was the only chance to save his life.
The patient's 19-year-old daughter, Elvira Sakhavitdinova, was the donor, and underwent a comprehensive medical examination.
The liver transplant was performed on the basis of the Turkestan Regional Clinic by specialists from the National Scientific Center for Surgery and under the leadership of academician B. Baimakhanov. V. Mutagirov, M. Zhumabekova (anesthesiologists), M. Doskhanov, S. Tileuov, Zh. Ospan (surgeons) and specialists from the Regional Clinical Hospital actively worked on this operation.
Currently, the patient is under the dynamic supervision of doctors. The postoperative period passed without serious complications, and the function of the transplanted organ is gradually stabilizing.
This operation was the first liver transplant in the history of the region and opened up new opportunities for the development of the field of transplantology in the Turkestan region.
