MercadoNewsWorld In an unprecedented event in the UK, a woman has received a womb transplant from her sister, marking the country's first womb transplant operation. The recipient, who wished to remain anonymous, had Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome, a condition that prevents the womb from developing. The seven-hour operation was successful and the woman is now on a six-month recovery period before she can start IVF treatment. The transplant was carried out by a team from Womb Transplant UK, a charity established to provide womb transplants for women born without a functional uterus. #MedicalMilestone #WombTransplant #MRKHSyndrome 🏥👩‍⚕️💕 Español: En un evento sin precedentes en el Reino Unido, una mujer recibió un trasplante de útero de su hermana, lo que marca la primera operación de trasplante de útero en el país.
