PETALING JAYA: Two young children have been given a new lease of life after successful paediatric living donor liver transplants involving surgeons from the University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC) and Renji Hospital, a teaching hospital affiliated with the Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.
The transplants for the children were a first for UMMC following the provision of adult liver transplants two years ago.
