A San Francisco surgeon says that in the nearly 2,000 transplants he has performed, he has never given two new kidneys to two siblings in less than a day.
SAN FRANCISCO -- A miraculous story coming from UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital in San Francisco.
Matthew Ouimet, 11, and Carswell Ouimet, 19, are siblings who both have a rare genetic condition called hyperoxaluria. Because of that, both were in dire need of a new kidney until recently. After two years of dialysis treatment every other day, a kidney was now being offered to Carswell at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital.
