Heart Transplant Performed In Montreal Successfully
Elie Zaor 58 from Sherbrooke received a new heart at the Montreal Heart Institute. The donor Aime Lamothe 35 from Sorel died of a cerebral hemorrhage after severe hypertension linked to kidney illness. The operation, Canada’s third heart transplant, was led by Dr. Pierre Grondin with Dr. Paul David noting the patient’s conditions. The heart began beating on its own after insertion and Zaor faces at least a month of precautions to prevent rejection.
