Dear All,

We do have some good news to share. Jithin came to us with acute liver failure. His disease had worsened to a stage where liver transplant became indicated. That is when we assessed his suitability to receive liver transplant and his parent suitability as potential  Donor.

He was treated medically whilst preparations were being made for the transplant. Fortunately he responded to treatment and his liver recovered well enough to not require a transplant.

A small proportion of Patients with acute liver failure in whom transplant becomes indicated recover with medical management and Jithin was one of those fortunate ones. Both Jithin and his parents are relieved that he has recovered well.

Thank you so much for coming forward to help this little one.

Regards
Dr Mathew
