Baku. Mubariz Aslanov – APA. Azerbaijan is planning to conduct the first heart transplant surgery in the near future, Ahliman Amiraslanov, chairman of the Azerbaijani Parliament’s Committee on Health Issues, told reporters on Wednesday.
Amiraslanov said the necessary steps are being taken towards making it a reality.
