A 41-year-old man, suffering from Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) recently underwent kidney transplant surgery at a hospital in Mumbai in which doctors removed both of his kidneys weighing 7 kilograms and 5.8 kilograms each.

"This operation saved patient life. He was bleeding when he was brought to the hospital. Had we not removed his kidney, he would not be alive. The weight of both of his kidneys was 13 kilograms. We removed both of his kidneys. The weight of a normal kidney is 800 grams," one of the doctors who performed the surgery told ANI. "When the patient was admitted to hospital, his weight was 106 kg now he is 80 kg," he said.

The 41-year-old patient's wife donated her kidney to another patient, a resident of Amravati who was also waiting for a suitable kidney donor. Likewise, the patient's wife donated a kidney to another patient. "I was suffering from ADPKD for the last ten years. Our transplant went well. I have to take some medication now. I can eat home-cooked food," the patient said.
