Summary
- A one-year-old boy from Uzbekistan underwent a rare liver transplant.
- The boy suffered from Alagille syndrome, a genetic liver disorder.

Doctors at Max Super Speciality Hospital in Patparganj have achieved a remarkable success by treating a one-year-old boy from Uzbekistan suffering from Alagille syndrome. This rare genetic liver disorder required a complex living donor liver transplant, with the child's father stepping forward to donate a part of his liver.
The critical operation took place last October. Following the successful transplant, the young patient was discharged from the hospital a month later. During a recent follow-up appointment this month, doctors confirmed that the baby is recovering well and progressing positively.
