Stanford: Patient Improves After Groundbreaking Heart Transplant
Stanford doctors report Mr Kaspersak shows signs of improvement after a new heart was implanted last Saturday. The world’s fourth human heart transplant recipient faces still-present risks of rejection, while the fifth patient died in New York. In Cape Town, Blaiberg’s transplanted heart had fluid around it but doctors deem it not serious. Georgetown researchers announce a preconditioning project for unborn calves to speed future transplants. The heart came from Virginia White, a 43 year old Santa Clara mother whose death made the transplant possible.
