According to a new study by @ColumbiaMSPH researchers and the University of Colorado Anschutz, people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in the U.S. face a 14-year deficit in life expectancy. The study provides one of the first large-scale estimates of age-specific death rates and life expectancy among people with ASD. columbiamed.link/4hEAVZr

Four operating rooms. A robotic donor surgery. One liver that would be divided to save three adults.
This single day combined:
A robotic living-donor surgery (a healthy donor donates part of their liver)
A domino transplant (a chain of organ donations between multiple patients)
A split-liver transplant (a procedure where a donor liver is split into two parts, with each part transplanted into a separate recipient)
All in adults, all at once.
It stretched across 15 hours, four rooms, and more than 30 team members. And in the end, three patients received the chance at renewed life.
Here’s how it unfolded, step by step, told in sequence with just enough anatomy to bring you into a surgical mindset. columbiasurgery.org/news/one…
