On the one hand, the crisis of corona crisis is getting deeper once again on the world, while in this difficult time, a big success has been registered in the name of medical science. In one of their experiments, doctors have succeeded in transplanting a pig’s heart into the human chest. Surgeons in the US have successfully transplanted a heart from a genetically modified pig into a 57-year-old man. After this experiment, many problems of organ donation in the medical field can be easily solved.
The University of Maryland Medical School said in a statement issued on Monday that the “historic” process took place on Friday. This could mark a major milestone for animal-to-human transplantation. Although earlier this experiment was not considered right, this big decision was taken to save the patient’s life after the underlying health of patient David Bennett’s body became very bad when he died. At present, after this successful experiment, he is now safe and out of danger. Along with this, doctors are carefully monitoring and monitoring the functioning of the new organ.
According to the information, the patient, a Maryland resident, agreed to the surgery and said, “I want to live. It might be like playing shots in the dark, but I would like to go with this choice.” Now after his successful operation, Bennett, who has been bedridden on a heart-lung bypass machine for several months now, said, “I look forward to getting out of bed after I recover.” At the same time, Bartley Griffith, who carried out this transplant, is very optimistic about the future with this transplant.
It is worth noting that according to official figures, there are about a million people waiting for organ transplants in the US alone and more than 6,000 patients die each year due to non-compliance.
