Both his kidneys and heart had failed. But the doctors brought him back from the clutches of death. This was the first operation of its kind in the world in which a pig’s kidney and heart device were simultaneously implanted in someone. The woman has got a new life. The woman is healthy now.
the woman started walking
According to the report of Daily Mail, 54 year old Lisa Pisano was suffering from a very serious illness. Both his kidney and heart had failed. It was difficult for the woman to survive with the kidney that is traditionally implanted, so a pig’s kidney was implanted in her. The woman wanted to get a kidney transplant for a long time but she was not able to get a kidney from any human being. Meanwhile, both his kidney and heart failed. Doctors have said that his new kidney is completely healthy and the kidney has also started producing urine. Not only this, patient Lisa Pisano has now started walking. Till a few days ago it was absolutely impossible to do this. Pisano is the second person to receive a kidney transplant from a pig. Earlier, a pig kidney was implanted in a man in Boston itself.
great achievement of scientific world
After the kidney transplant, Pisano said, “I had given up on my life, I had no hope for this but I have got a chance. If I don’t get this chance, someone else gets it. This is amazing to me.” Kidney transplant in this woman was done at NYU Langone Health Transplant Center in New York. Dr. Robert Montgomery of NYU Langone Health Transplant Institute said that it is the greatness of our scientific achievement that we have given new life to Liza. The biggest thing is that with this achievement we can help many needy persons in the society. He said that it was the hard work of our doctors, researchers and nurses and administration. Without all this this work would not have been completed.
