UDUTH Achieves First Successful Kidney Transplant
The Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital (UDUTH) in Sokoto has successfully performed its first kidney transplant, marking a major milestone in the hospital’s medical advancements.
The groundbreaking procedure was carried out by a team of highly skilled medical professionals, positioning UDUTH as one of the leading medical institutions in Nigeria capable of conducting specialized organ transplants.
