Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital\'s Successful First Liver Transplant in Indonesia

It became a national topic of conversation that Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital made a successful liver transplant surgery in Indonesia. A few months ago, surgeons from H. Adam Malik National Hospital visited Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital in order to have medical training session about Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital's own liver transplant surgery skills. After this visit, the Indonesian surgeons requested Indonesian Government to invite surgeons of Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital and perform liver transplant surgery for Indonesian patients. Luckily, Indonesian Government accepted the request and asked PNUYH the first case for liver transplant in July, 2015. After PNUYH thoroughly planned a liver transplant surgery and flew to H. Adam Malik National Hospital with all the medical equipment that required for the surgery. The surgery went successful under a safe environment without any bleeding symptoms.
