Lucknow, Oct 27 (Ians) Ekta Pandey’s parents could not have given a better Diwali gift to Ashok Goel, 58, a real estate consultant suffering from end-stage liver disease for over six months.
Ekta, 18 had been declared brain-dead at King George’s Medical University (Kgmu) on Diwali after respiratory failure.
Her parents gave their consent for cadaveric multi-organ donation (Cmod).
The Kgmu team, in a marathon procedure, retrieved her liver, cornea and kidney.
While cornea and kidney were found unfit for donation, the liver was successfully transplanted to Goel.
To complete the life-giving procedure, more than 40 staff members of the Kgmu did not take Diwali leave.
After the procedure, the doctors burst into celebrations befitting the occasion.
Ekta, a resident of Ambedkar Nagar, was suffering from severe chest pain for a few days and was first admitted to the district hospital, from where she was referred to the Ram Manohar Lohia Institute...
