Three-Year-Old Boy Receives Lifesaving Liver Transplant After 17-Month Wait
Côme, a three-year-old boy, has received a lifesaving liver transplant after a 17-month wait, marking a pivotal moment in his health journey. The transplant was made possible by an anonymous donor who had passed away. Prior to the surgery, Côme’s health was deteriorating, requiring him to take over 20 medications daily due to a severe liver condition. Following a nearly ten-hour operation and a week in intensive care, Côme is now recovering, with doctors discovering that over 80% of his original liver was necrotic. His mother expressed immense relief, calling it a ‘rebirth’ for her son.
