Summary:
KOLKATA: Sougata Roychoudury, who underwent dual kidney transplant at RN Tagore International Institute of Cardiac Sciences (RTIICS) on January 29, was discharged from the hospital on Saturday. They decided to utilise both kidneys in a single recipient. The Regional Organ and Tissue Transplant Organisation (ROTTO) gave a green signal to RTIICS to retain both the kidneys for a single recipient. Deceased organ transplant is still a learning curve. Due to the age of the donor and few co-morbid conditions, doctors thought a single organ could not have a good outcome..
