Father's liver cirrhosis is at stake, and children donate liver to help rebirth! Farmers dying of severe liver cirrhosis have filial children competing to donate their livers. His eldest daughter matched successfully. With the assistance of the medical team, he completed the 12-hour living-related liver transplantation, and made his daughter donate 60% of her right liver, saving her life. Yin, director of transplant surgery at Dalin Tzu Chi Hospital, said that chronic hepatitis C is prone to cirrhosis and long-term inflammation of the liver, which leads to the dilatation of many venous vessels in the abdominal cavity and increases the difficulty of surgery.
C liver complicated with cirrhosis was rescued by liver replacement.
Lin Minnong, 63, suffers from chronic hepatitis C, hepatic coma, severe ascites, esophageal vein tumor rupture and bleeding, diabetes, heart valve insufficiency and other diseases. However, with the change of the condition, hepatitis C leads to cirrhosis, and it is necessary to change the liver to survive. Finally, he was transferred to the transplant surgery of Tzu Chi Hospital in Dalin, and Yin assessed that he could receive a living liver transplant. Father and daughter were hospitalized a few days ago, and the teams of vascular surgery, general surgery, anesthesiology, plastic surgery and imaging medicine completed the operation 12 hours.
Evaluation of various subjects after preoperative control treatment
Yin said that in the past, patients had complications related to chronic hepatitis C cirrhosis, including vomiting blood and hepatic coma. Without liver transplantation, their lives may be in danger at any time. Before this transplant, he had problems with ascites and pulmonary cryptococcus. Therefore, we must do a good job of controlled treatment before operation, including physical assessment of gastrointestinal department, cardiology department, chest department and psychosomatic department, so that there will be no serious complications after operation. Postoperative nursing was assisted by nephrology, infectious diseases and rheumatology and immunology.
C liver inflammation increases the difficulty of operation. Father took a photo and thanked the doctor.
Due to chronic hepatitis C, the liver is in a state of inflammation for a long time, which is prone to high portal vein pulse pressure, and many venous vessels in the abdominal cavity are dilated and the adhesion is quite serious. During the operation, it is necessary to take out the liver like bitter gourd, and carefully avoid the peripheral blood vessels that are easy to bleed, which increases the difficulty of the operation.
Lin, the eldest daughter, said when sharing, I am very grateful to Dr. Yin and the medical team for treating my father wholeheartedly. With the care of so many people, my father recovered well. Although Lin Minnong, who just left the hospital, could not be present, he thanked the doctor through the film.
Note: High portal vein pulse pressure means liver cirrhosis, and blood cannot flow into the liver smoothly.
