Dr. Manish Sharma Performs Successful Renal Transplant for Fabry Disease Patient
Dr. Manish Sharma, Consultant Nephrologist at Apollomedics Superspeciality Hospital, Lucknow, successfully managed a complex case of advanced renal failure in a 32-year-old patient with Fabry disease, a rare genetic disorder. After identifying the disease through detailed family history and genetic testing, a renal transplant was planned. Although the patient's mother was initially considered as a donor, she was unfit, leading his elder sister to step forward. After thorough evaluations, the transplant was performed successfully, and the patient is doing well 60 days post-op with improved renal function. Happy patient, happy doctor!
