An Indian Air Force (IAF) aircraft efficiently airlifted harvested organ (liver) from Chandigarh to Army Hospital (R&R), Delhi despite a raging thunderstorm on Tuesday (May 30) night. This swift assist has given a recent lease of life to a affected person.
The transplant crew of Command Hospital Western Command (CHWC) retrieved liver and corneas from the daddy of a serving soldier who was declared mind lifeless after a hemorrhagic stroke. After a 4-hour surgical crew effort, the organs have flown to AHRR by a well-coordinated air assist by IAF. This is the second liver transplant harvest in a brief span of two months.
