The Heart was transported to Mulund by road, via a Green Corridor enabled by Mumbai’s Traffic and Police authorities, covering a distance of 31Kms in 23Mins.

Speaking of yet another milestone achievement in medical history of the state, Dr Anvay Mulay, Head of Cardiac Transplant Team, Fortis Hospital, Mulund, who conducted both the transplants said, “Our team of medical experts, Medical Social Workers and Nursing Units have enabled the two landmark transplants within a tiny timeframe; this would not have been possible without their relentless focus and determination to enable these transplants. We would not have been able to reach this far without the consent by the kin’s families, who have forever changed the lives of the recipients and their families. The surgeries have been concluded and the patients are now stable”.

Talking on yet another account of clinical excellence, Dr S Narayani, Zonal Director, Fortis Hospital, Mulund, said, “We salute the brave parents of the 14month old boy from Surat and the husband of the 45yr old female from Karjat, for consenting to donate; their kin lives on in the form of the recipients. All stakeholders, especially media played an important role in advocating the cause of Organ Donation, which helped sensitize the community. There has been a considerable rise in the number of cadaveric donations this year, we hope to keep progressing on that front to help more such patients of end-stage organ failure”.
