A stem cell treatment was applied to a camel at MAKÜ for the first time in Turkey
It was determined that the vision loss of the 7-year-old camel brought from Aydın to Burdur with cataract suspicion was due to retinal causes. A total of 800 thousand stem cells were transplanted into both eyes of the camel during the operation performed at MAKÜ Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. The camel, named 'Salda', is expected to regain its vision within two months.
