Heart Transplant Links to Teen Donor in Major Operation
In Houston, surgeons replaced a Phoenix accountant's weak heart with that of a 15 year old in the ninth US heart transplant, led by Dr. Denton Cooley at St. Luke's. The donor's death followed a gunshot wound. The patient’s condition was described as optimistic nine hours post op. Simultaneously, in Los Angeles, an 11 year old boy's organs were donated to four recipients after a fatal auto accident, with kidneys going to two men, a spleen to a patient with a blood disease, and skin grafts planned for a burn victim. The kidney recipient faced urgent transport to UCLA to receive the organ within an hour.
