A genetically modified pig’s heart has been successfully transplanted into a human for the first time.
The operation, performed in Baltimore in the United States on Friday, offers a potential future solution to long transplant waiting lists. Dr. Bartley Griffith, who performed the operation, described the situation on Monday:
âIt creates the pulse, it creates the pressure, it is his heart,â adding: âItâs working and it looks normal. We are thrilled, but we donât know what tomorrow will bring us. This has never been done before.â
