Doctors at Narayana Health City conducted the first double lung transplant surgery in the State, giving a new lease of life to Sudeesh M.V., a 28-year-old construction worker from Thrissur, Kerala. The patient had suffered severe bronchiectasis leading to lung failure and was dependent on oxygen support.

Mr. Sudeesh said, “After a long struggle with infections and hospitalisation, I am extremely thankful to the team of doctors at Narayana Health City for giving me a new lease of life. I can now lead a normal life and get back to my work.”

The donor was from Sparsh Hospital, Yeshwantpur.
