After the family of a 34-year-old lady who was brain dead agreed to donate her organs, authorities at the hospital of the Army's southern command in Pune coordinated their efforts to guarantee that five seriously ill patients obtained fresh leases on life late on Thursday night. According to Brig. Bhupesh Goyal, deputy commandant of the Army hospital, organ transplants for two active-duty soldiers took place between Thursday night and early Friday morning.
Goyal said, "Eyes were preserved at the eye bank of the Command Hospital (Southern Command) Armed Forces Medical College complex." According to reports, a surgical team from Ruby Hall Clinic removed the liver of a hospital patient. The woman was a retired soldier's wife, and she was brain dead. She was admitted on Thursday, and after being pronounced dead, her family agreed to give her organs.
