Webster Man Thrives With Rare Century-Old Kidney
Original: Webster Man Thrives with a ‘Rare’ Century-Old Kidney
A man from Webster, New York, is reported to be living well with what doctors describe as a rare 'century-old' kidney, according to the University of Rochester Medical Center. The case highlights an unusual medical achievement, showing how a transplanted organ can keep functioning successfully decades after it originally came from its donor.
Why now: The extraordinary longevity of the transplanted kidney makes the case a remarkable medical story.
