The Clinical Hospital Center in Rijeka, Croatia, has made a global medical breakthrough by successfully performing a kidney autotransplantation. Urology specialists relocated a patient’s kidney, affected by a gynecological condition, to a different part of the body, where it fully regained function. This complex procedure is rare, performed in only a few medical centers globally. The hospital’s urology department is recognized as a national reference center for kidney transplants by Croatia’s Ministry of Health, marking this achievement as significant for both Croatia and the wider medical community.
