UPMC participated in its first kidney paired donation on Dec. 10 in collaboration with Temple University Hospital and the Paired Donation Network. The couples, a husband and wife from Pittsburgh and two sisters from Philadelphia, donated kidneys to each others' loved ones in a two-way surgical swap on Wednesday. Such paired exchanges are still uncommon. |
