After the success of the first 5 kidney transplants, Viet Tiep Friendship Hospital continued to perform the 6th kidney transplant surgery of the same bloodline. The transplant pair is a father and son, residing in Phu Lien ward, Kien An district, Hai Phong city.

Representatives of Viet Tiep Friendship Hospital and representatives of Viet Duc Friendship Hospital took souvenir photos with leaders of Hai Phong City Department of Health within the framework of the Conference to summarize the first 5 kidney transplants at the Hospital.

Accordingly, patient TTH A, born in 1995, was diagnosed with chronic kidney failure in the third month of pregnancy in 2019, along with high blood pressure, so the fetus could only last for more than 7 months before being stillborn. In early March 2020, the disease progressed more severely, forcing the patient to be hospitalized for treatment with a prescription for dialysis 3 times/week. It has been 4 years now, regardless of sunny or stormy days, the patient still has to undergo dialysis regularly to maintain life.

Feeling sorry for his daughter, who was thin, weak and struggling to "fight" with the disease. As a father, when he heard that Viet Tiep Friendship Hospital had performed kidney transplants and that previous surgeries had been successful, Mr. TXD, born in 1974, and his family met and decided to donate his kidney to his daughter. After the screening, screening and paraclinical testing process, the doctor concluded that all parameters and indicators between father and daughter were compatible for kidney donation and receipt.
