The first heart transplantation in the country successfully performed

May 05,2020

Dr. Zan Mitrev and a team from our clinic participated in the first heart transplantation in the country. The transplantation was performed at the University Clinic for state Cardiac Surgery within the Clinical Center on 22.05.2020 and was successfully completed in the morning.
The heart donor was a deceased patient whose family agreed to donate the heart to another patient who has been waiting for a donor for a long time, for which we are very grateful.
In addition to Dr. Zan Mitrev, the team of cardiac surgeons who performed the transplantation included Dr. Sashko Jovev (University Clinic for state Cardiac Surgery ) and Aleksandar Nikolic (Sistina).
