Geraldo Vaz Junior

Geraldo Vaz Junior is a Brazilian man who underwent a liver transplant in São Paulo. Unfortunately, seven months after the procedure, he was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma in the transplanted organ, which was found to be of donor origin. Despite receiving a new liver, the cancer had already metastasized, leading to his current status as a palliative care patient. His family has raised concerns about the risks associated with organ transplants and the need for better transparency regarding donor health.
