Since 2026, doctors in the Khabarovsk Territory have started performing organ transplants in accordance with mandatory medical insurance policies, rather than federal quotas as before. Governor Dmitry Demeshin noted this at a meeting with the Director of the Academician Shumakov National Medical Research Center of Transplantology and Artificial Organs, Sergey Gautier.
According to the press service of the regional Government, the sides agreed on the future development of the territory’s transplantology service.

“We consider your directions and advice to be important because the preservation of our residents’ lives and health is a high-priority aspect of our work,” Dmitry Demeshin said in conclusion.

Heart transplants should become the next stage of developing the regional transplantology sector. According to Sergey Gautier, all the required resources for performing these operations are available. The center’s specialists will continue to support their Khabarovsk colleagues. During their working trip to Khabarovsk, doctors from Moscow visited the Federal Center of Cardiovascular Surgery and discussed the timely referral of patients to transplantology clinics; they also conducted methodological training seminars. All organ transplants are performed at the Professor Sergeyev Territorial Clinical Hospital.
The program was resumed in 2022 after a 20-year interval. Initial kidney transplants were followed in 2023 by liver transplants. Inthe past four years, doctors have saved 38 patients.
