The organs of a 51-year-old Amravati resident, that was flown to the city on 2 Nov, gave a new lease of life to three Mumbaikars.
The donor, a property broker, had consumed poison and subsequently suffered cardiac arrest. After being initially treated in a public hospital, he was moved to Sankalp Chaudhari Hospital and Dialysis Centre in Amravati that was granted a special one-time permission by the Directorate of Health Services to retrieve organs.
Nephrologist Dr Avinash Chaudhari said that the patient's brain stem function too was affected. He was declared brain dead following which his family members consented to donate his liver, kidneys and cornea.
The organs were retrieved by liver transplant surgeon Dr Gaurav Chaubal of Jupiter Hospital. The liver was transplanted into a 56-year-old recipient while the kidney was given to a 34-year-old at Jupiter.
The other kidney was transplanted into a patient in Hinduja Hospital.
