23-km green corridor gives BSF constable awaiting liver transplant new lease of life

A 42-year-old BSF constable awaiting a liver transplant got a new lease of life on Friday when the organ reached him after being harvested from a 70-year-old donor and transported through a stretch of 23 km in just 22 minutes, a city-based hospital said. The liver was donated by a 70-year-old male patient who had suffered intracranial haemorrhage, resulting in brain death, BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital said in a statement, highlighting that the authorities facilitated the safe passage of the organ.
