How do you perform nearly 300 liver transplants a year in Malatya? “It’s not just medicine—it’s a journey built from scratch with a clear goal: to create the 💯best transplant center in Turkey, right here in Malatya. 🏥” How many transplants annually? “Around 300, and with cross-liver transplants, this could reach 400. No other center in Türkiye or Europe achieves this.” What is “cross” liver transplantation? “If a donor & recipient are incompatible, they can match with another incompatible pair—saving two lives through algorithmic matching.” Is 279 cross-liver transplants in 3 years a lot? “Yes! India did 259 in 15 years with 9 centers. We did more at a single center in just 3 years. Soon, we’ll pass 300.” What drives this success? “It’s not just science.
