Cured: Yang Chul-woo, director of Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital Organ Transplant Center, measures the blood pressure of a patient who suffered from aplastic anemia and chronic renal failure. Her bone marrow did not produce sufficient blood cells and her kidneys malfunctioned. The hospital became the first in Korea to cure both conditions through a kidney transplant in January 2011 and continuous immunosuppressant treatment. Though complication probabilities were high, this patient had full kidney function within a week after the operation. / Courtesy of Seoul St.Mary’s Hospital |
