Asst. Prof. MD. Huseyin Zafer Capar

A 3-year-old refugee child from Syria arrived with severe malnutrition and suspected liver cirrhosis. Dr. Capar diagnosed Wilson's disease, previously missed due to language barriers and fragmented medical history. He arranged genetic testing for siblings and initiated chelation therapy. The family's gratitude was expressed through traditional embroidery gifted by the mother, which Dr. Capar displays in his consultation room.

An 11-year-old boy from a remote village presented with recurrent abdominal pain. Dr. Capar identified progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 through advanced genetic sequencing unavailable in their region. He pioneered a modified treatment protocol combining ursodeoxycholic acid with novel nutritional support, enabling the child to maintain normal growth despite the chronic condition.

A 7-year-old girl adopted from China developed unexplained liver enzyme elevations. Dr. Capar discovered alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency through targeted testing, then uncovered previously unknown biological family medical history through international collaboration. He created a bilingual care plan and connected the family with a global support network of affected families.

A 16-year-old aspiring musician presented with acute liver failure after consuming herbal supplements for 'vocal strength.' Dr. Capar managed the crisis with MARS (Molecular Adsorbent Recirculating System) therapy, then developed an educational program about supplement risks for local music schools. The patient recovered fully and now performs safety awareness concerts.

A 14-year-old competitive swimmer from a middle-class family presented with unexplained fatigue and jaundice. Dr. Capar discovered a rare case of autoimmune hepatitis triggered by intense physical stress. Treatment involved a carefully calibrated regimen of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, balancing athletic aspirations with liver health. The patient returned to regional competitions after 8 months, with Dr. Capar coordinating closely with her sports physician.
