GURUGRAM: An 18 year old woman from Uzbekistan donated part of her liver to her 38 year old mother in a case announced by Paras Health Gurugram on Wednesday, November 11, 2026. The hospital is in Sushant Lok 1, Sector 43. Two opened local reports attribute the account to the hospital and agree that the transplant operation lasted about 10 hours.

The donor left hospital after seven days, while her mother spent 15 days in hospital following the transplant, according to the accounts. November 11 is the date of the announcement examined for this report. The material does not state the date of surgery, so the operation should not be described as having taken place that Wednesday.

Two patients in one transplant case

The mother had developed decompensated chronic liver disease linked to autoimmune hepatitis, the hospital said through the reports. She and her daughter travelled from Uzbekistan to Gurugram for specialised transplant care. The daughter volunteered to donate part of her liver. The account concerns a living donor transplant within a family, involving care for both the person receiving the organ segment and the donor.

The Liver Transplant and GI Surgery team was led by Dr Ankur Garg, group director and head of department, and Dr Vaibhaw Kumar, director. The hospital's own Gurugram specialty page independently lists both doctors in those roles. Their inclusion in the department directory supports the team identification, while the details of this particular operation come from the November 11 hospital account.

The operation included a robotic donor hepatectomy, the procedure used to remove the donated liver portion. Both reports describe that part of the surgery. They do not establish that every stage of the recipient's operation was performed robotically. Keeping the donor procedure separate from the broader transplant avoids overstating what the hospital announced.

Garg placed the emphasis on protecting the donor. In the reported statement, he explained that a living donor operation creates a responsibility towards two people at once and that decisions must reflect that obligation. He also cautioned that the surgical approach alone does not determine the outcome. His comments were about the clinical team's responsibilities in selected cases, rather than a claim that one approach guarantees success.

Kumar described another part of caring for a young donor: concerns about pain, the recovery period, time in hospital and returning to ordinary life. He said those concerns deserved attention alongside the operation itself. In this case, the hospital reported that the daughter began moving during recovery and progressed towards discharge.

  • Announcement examined: Wednesday, November 11, 2026.
  • Hospital location: Sushant Lok 1, Sector 43, Gurugram.
  • Donor and recipient: daughter aged 18 and mother aged 38.
  • Operation duration reported: about 10 hours.
  • Reported hospital stays: seven days for the donor and 15 for the recipient.

What the hospital's public pages confirm

The official liver transplant department page describes care involving hepatologists, surgeons and support staff. It says the department handles adult and paediatric liver transplants and covers assessment, preparation and recovery after transplantation. Those are the hospital's published service details, rather than additional outcomes measured in this mother's treatment.

The hospital also maintains an organ transplant information page with dated approval entries. Its tables distinguish the file number, organ and approval date. An approval entry is a different kind of record from an operation report or a discharge summary. No individual entry has been matched to this mother and daughter in the sources examined.

The institution's official Gurugram information gives its address as C 1, Sushant Lok 1, Sector 43, Phase I. The archive building photograph accompanying this article comes from that page. It shows the hospital exterior, rather than the donor, recipient or surgical procedure.

Recovery figures describe this case

The different hospital stays are the reported recovery milestones for these two patients. The announcement does not provide a long term follow up period or a general success rate calculated from a series of comparable cases. The seven day donor stay and 15 day recipient stay therefore should not be presented as a timetable that other patients can expect.

For other local healthcare developments, readers can see the separate reports on the Sector 102 hospital subsidy proposal, a proposed 500 bed hospital phase and contractual doctor recruitment in Sector 9A. Those concern public access, capacity and staffing, separately from the transplant case announced in Sector 43.
