Almost everyone knows about a kidney or a liver transplant. But do you know there
is another transplant where doctors put a donor's stool deep into the intestine of a
patient suffering from severe gut infection? Faecal transplant, the procedure which
has been experimented with successfully abroad, is gaining ground in India, too.A
44-year-old man suffering from ulcerative colitis, a form of inflammatory bowel
disease, recently underwent the life-saving procedure at Fortis Memorial Research
Institute, Gurgaon. Dr Avnish Seth, director, gastroenterology and hepatobiliary
sciences at the hospital, said six more patients have undergone the transplant,
while another one is in waiting.
“Suresh Sharma (name changed) was suffering from ulcerative colitis for the past
11 years. He was passing stools mixed with blood on most days. No amount of
steroids and other medications could help him.That's why we thought of
attempting the transplant procedure on him. The donor was a healthy family
member. There was marked relief in his symptoms nine months later. He is off all
medication,“ Dr Seth added.He said more such case results have to be vetted
before declar ing it a success and advising the procedure. Brought to you by

Dr Anupam Sibal, medical director of Apollo hospitals, said they have also conducted faecal
transplant successfully on one patient. “We have good and bad bacteria in the
gastrointestinal tract and there is a balance between them. When it gets disturbed,
gastrointestinal symptoms occur. There is a lot of interest in the concept of putting in
healthy bacteria to get this balance right. Initial results are encouraging,“ he said.
Faecal transplant is carried out in the western countries at an exorbitant cost. Dr Seth of
Fortis hospital said it has worked out a “do it at home“ model where a close family
member donates the stool and the processing is carried out at home to reduce the cost. “
Also, our technique of putting a donor's stool deep into the colon with colonoscope and
not just a rectal enema has not been reported earlier,“ he said.
Doctors said faecal transplant has been used for centuries to treat equine diarrhoea.“In
World War II, German soldiers learnt that ingestion of camel stool helped in recovering
from bacillary dysentery . In 1958, the first faecal transplant for pseudomembranous colitis
was reported when the condition of three of four critical patients improved following FMT
enema,“ said a doctor.
