 Hello, I am Dr. Ravi Chan Siddha Chari, I am consultant Hepatobiliary and Chief Transplant Surgeon, Manipal Hospital's Bangalore. This gentleman came from Maldives with chronic liver disease. When he came to us, he had a huge belly with a lot of ascites, he was jaundiced, he could not even walk, he used to come in a wheelchair. After thorough evaluation, we came to know that I mean he is suffering from liver cirrhosis and he needs transplantation. So this happened sometimes during second week of March. So that was the time when you know that COVID was just come you know increasing in all other countries and even in our country too. But the lockdown started sometime on March 23rd. The gentleman was here two weeks before with his son, two sons in fact. So we evaluated and he needed urgent transplantation to save his life. We explained the procedure and everything to the sons and the son was happy to donate part of his liver. Only problem was getting the documentation done because of the COVID situation. So most of the documents were supposed to come from Maldives and at that time there was no courier or one of the son wanted to go personally and get it. Just before the lockdown and he went back, he went to Maldives, got stuck there he could not come back. In this situation, I tried to treat him medically but however his condition was deteriorating. So I spoke to the management and also the patient's son and explained that he needs urgent transplant. So we should get some scanned documents and all the documents via scanning and fax and we will talk to the embassy and get it through. So thankfully our government was very supportive and they said because this is an urgent transplantation we are okay to go ahead with transplant which was done about three, four weeks ago. He underwent transplants and donated part of his liver very well. He was discharged in about two weeks time seeing this change you know from the suffering to almost a normal life they are very delighted and they are nearly looking to go back to their country once the flight starts and the lockdown gets over.
