Ailing youth receives heart from old woman through complex surgery
A green corridor was recently created from AIIMS Delhi to Fortis Escorts Heart Institute in Okhla to facilitate the transportation of a live heart, with the help of the Delhi Traffic police.
The distance of about 5.5 km was covered within 4.25 minutes for transportation of the heart which takes almost 13-15 minutes in a normal routine. The efforts and assistance provided by Delhi Traffic Police were appreciated by the administration of Fortis Hospital.
