A 22-year-old man from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, who had been declared brain-dead, donated his organs and saved the lives of five people. His selfless act of donating his organs before passing away has left a legacy of hope and made a profound impact on the lives of five strangers.
According to the Saudi Center for Organ Transplant (SCOT), a team of medical professionals has successfully transplanted organs donated by the 22-year-old man to five patients. One of the recipients was a 34-year-old woman who received a kidney transplant at the King Abdulaziz Medical City of the National Guard in Riyadh, while a man in his sixties received a kidney transplant at the King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center (KFSHRC) in Riyadh.
