A 71-year-old woman donated a kidney to her 33 daughter and both are healthy after a successful transplant operation in a Gaozhou city hospital, in south China's Guangdong province.
During the operation on August 18, Xia Miao donated a kidney to her daughter Su Hongmei. Xia is believed to be the oldest person to do so in the world, said the hospital sources.
