A woman, Sara, travels to Turkey for liver donation surgery after agreeing to donate a portion of her liver to a man she says she knows only minimally. According to the reports, the surgery takes place in March and involves an operation lasting about five hours. Sara donates almost two-thirds of her liver. The man is described as someone she has met only a handful of times before the decision to donate. The accounts present the trip and the procedure as a personal medical undertaking carried out despite limited prior relationship with the recipient. Both sources describe the same core details: Sara’s travel to Turkey for the donation, the timing in March, the duration of the surgery, and the amount of liver tissue donated. The reporting does not provide additional information in these excerpts about the recipient’s condition, the hospital involved, or the specific process for medical screening and matching.
