New York ∙ Pig kidney transplanted into brain-dead man is a success. The scientists claimed that this was an important step as the kidney functioned normally in humans for a month. Scientists are preparing to experiment with pig kidneys in living humans. The trial is being conducted by New York University Langone Health Hospital.
On April 14, a genetically modified pig’s kidney was transplanted following removing both kidneys of the brain-dead patient. Dr. Robert Montgomery, who is leading the experiment, stated that the function of the pig kidney has been excellent so far.
