CTOnews.com, November 1, according to CNN local time on October 31, the medical team announced that Lawrence Fawcett, the world's second patient who underwent a pig heart transplant, had died less than six weeks after the operation, which was shorter than the first case.
The University of Maryland Medical Center, which conducted the procedure, said the heart began to show signs of rejection in recent days.
Bartley Griffith, clinical director of the heart xenotransplantation program at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, said: "Mr. Fawcett's last wish is for us to make full use of what we have learned from experience, so that when human organs are not available, other people have a chance to have a new heart." then he told the team of doctors and nurses around him that he loved us. And we'll miss him very much. "
CTOnews.com previously reported that the University of Maryland Medical Center has so far been responsible for participating in the world's first and second pig heart transplant. The patient who underwent the operation received the pig heart transplant because he suffered from advanced heart disease, as well as complications of peripheral vascular disease and internal bleeding, which did not meet the requirements for traditional heart transplantation.
Shortly after the operation was completed, the University of Maryland Medical Center announced that the patient was now able to breathe on his own and that his heart was working well without any assistance.
In January last year, a team from the University of Maryland School of Medicine performed the world's first genetically modified pig heart transplant on a male patient with terminal heart disease. The patient responded well one week after the transplant and there was no acute rejection. The patient was able to detach from ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) and began to walk on the ground one day ago. However, his condition suddenly deteriorated in early March of that year and eventually passed away.
