Ulaanbaatar/MONTSAME/ A team of doctors from the First Central Hospital performed their 47th liver transplant surgery on April 19.

The cousins’ liver transplant surgery was successfully performed for about 15-20 hours by the team of doctors led by surgeon O.Sergelen, who first introduced laparoscopy and liver transplant surgeries in Mongolia and awarded with Honorary Fellowship in the American College of Surgeons (ACS) in 2017.

In Mongolia, this kind of surgery costs MNT10-15 million, with 75 percent funding from the state budget .
