Romanian Rock Star Cristi Minculescu To Undergo Two More Surgeries In Upcoming Days

Doctors at the German hospital said in a press release the Romanian rock star’s liver transplant went according to plan and he and his wife Rodica Minculescu, who was his donor, are feeling well.

Minculescu’s body seems to have accepted the liver portion transplanted from his wife.

Minculescu, 50, is suffering from an inherited illness, polycystic liver and kidney disease and needs a liver transplant. After the operation, he will remain in hospital for up to four weeks and then continue his recovery at home over the next two months.

Romanian Health Minister Ion Bazac said early March that the cost of the operation, EUR47,000, would be paid by the ministry. National Health Insurance House president, Professor Irinel Popescu, who performed the first liver transplant in Romania, explained he agreed that Minculescu should have surgery in Germany but said he cannot state the reasons, which are confidential.
