The science of animal-human transplantation took a big step forward this week after surgeons transplanted a pig kidney and liver into humans.
In Boston, a sick 62-year-old man received a genetically modified kidney from a pig. This is a world first.
The new organ began producing urine almost immediately, Mass General doctors said, and the patient is already walking the hospital hallways. He could soon be released.
At the same time, in China, a 50-year-old man became the first person to receive a genetically modified pig’s liver, which was stored in his body for ten days.
These two advances could give hope for new ways to supply hospitals with organs for transplants, while the waiting list stretches for years.
In the United States, surgeons have successfully transplanted a pig kidney into a human for the first time.
