The controversial lung transplant that had questioned existing transplant regulations has come across another stage. The 10-year old, Sarah Murnaghan will undergo another transplant as health complications were witnessed by the medical staff.
This information has been provided by the parents. They have said that the child has come across certain complications after she was transplanted with the lungs of an adult. They said, "It wasn't something we wanted to keep secret. But in that moment, we were told she would die because the first transplant failed".
Fleshing out the details, parents have said that even the second transplant is very risky. This involves high-risk as the organ has been affected by pneumonia.
Earlier, this case had compelled the authorities concerned to discuss about the changes in lung-transplant laws. This catastrophic complicated situation may even impose and pose a number of questions over the transplants.
The Newtown Square girl is under the care of instruments and is fixed to a ventilator at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. She is presently feeling better but the state of affairs, as explained by parents, doesn't seem to be good.
