Subscribe now >> Heart and Lung Transplants In the three decades since the performance of the first human heart transplant in December 1967, the procedure has changed from an experimental operation to an established treatment for advanced heart disease. Approximately 2,300 heart transplants are performed each year in the United States. In 1981, combined heart and lung transplants began to be used to treat patients with conditions that severely damage both these organs. As of 1995, about 500 people in the United States and 2,000 worldwide have received heart-lung transplants. There have been two main barriers to increasing the number of successful operations. In 1983, the first barrier to successful transplantations was overcome. That barrier was the rejection of the donor organ by the patient. The drug cyclosporine was introduced to suppress rejection of a donor heart or heart-lung by the patient's body. Cyclosporine and other medications to control rejection have significantly improved the survival of transplant patients. About 80 percent of heart transplant patients survive 1 year or more. About 60 percent of heart-lung transplants live at least 1 year after surgery. Research is under way to develop even better ways to control transplant rejection and improve survival.

But too little is known about the psychological impact it would have on the recipient or the donor family, the ethical issues or the long-term risks of immunosuppressive drugs that would have to be taken for life to prevent the immune system from rejecting the new face. ‘It is one of the most exciting possibilities for plastic and reconstructive surgery. But there is a lot of work to be done yet.’

69. CHFpatients.com - Heart Transplant - Pregnancy And Transplant Title Jefferson Study Evaluates Impact Of transplants on PregnancyPresenter Editor, JeffNews Source JeffNews, August 1, 1995. http://www.chfpatients.com/tx/txpregnancy.htm

Please read this! A reader recently e-mailed me, upset that this page made getting pregnant after a heart transplant sound like a bad idea - so I did further research. That research convinced me that getting pregnant after an organ transplant is very risky - but exactly how risky is impossible to know. The risks are worse for the baby than for the mother. In Medpseak (doctor talk), "successful" has a different meaning. In Medspeak, if 100 heart recipients get pregnant and two of them have fairly healthy babies but the other 98 babies die, then "women heart recipients can successfully have children" is a valid statement. Doctors are trained to think this way. Please be aware of this when reading medical studies. Pregnancy After Transplant May, 2000 - Provided there is good organ function, pregnancy may be attempted. However, unpredictable problems can happen, raising concern among doctors and patients alike about the safety of pregnancy after heart transplant. Each group of organ recipients has its own issues and problems specific to the original disease and the specific transplanted organ. Immunosuppressive therapy must be maintained throughout pregnancy.

New microsurgical devices and better anti-rejection drugs have made possible the transplanting of skin, muscle and bone from a dead person to another in particular, those who suffer facial deformities. But the main roadblock to the procedure may be the ethical questions surrounding the issue. British plastic surgeon Dr. Peter Butler from London's Royal Free Hospital called for a debate on the ethics of face transplants.

The Web CNN.com Home Page World U.S. Weather ... Special Reports SERVICES Video E-Mail Services CNNtoGO SEARCH Web CNN.com British kitty kidney transplants OK'd Story Tools LONDON, England (Reuters) The British, long ridiculed for pampering their pets, can now indulge their cats with a costly kidney transplant. The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons said on Friday it has given the go-ahead for the operation after its success in the United States prompted British cat lovers to demand the right to transplants here. "We are not encouraging transplantation or opposing it but we want to make sure that there are guidelines in place for the profession to be able to follow," Ian Holloway, external relations officer at the College, told Reuters. The operation will come at a price. In the United States, cat kidney transplants have cost between $7,000 and $10,000, and vets estimate the cost in Britain at between 8,000 and 10,000 pounds ($12,600 and $15,800). Even so, the procedure will extend a cat's life by an average of only two years and in most cases the cat will remain on medication for the rest of its life. The rise of kidney transplants for pets has caused uproar among animal welfare groups who fear the lives of stray moggies will be sacrificed to keep much-loved pets alive.

News Latest headlines Quirkies Eccentrics ... Corrections Ananova: Pubic hair transplants are big business in South Korea Transplanted pubic hair is the latest trend in South Korea, where it is regarded as a sign of fertility. Surgeon Afschin Fatemi, from Unna in Germany, said: "In the West, women try to reduce their genital hair as much as possible, but in Korea the trend is for forestation." He said a mass of pubic hair was considered a sign of fertility, which was why many women were paying as much as £1,700 to have hair transplanted from their heads. Fatemi added: "The structure of head and pubic hair on Asians is quite similar. The implanted hair isn't long and rarely falls out." The operation is conducted under local anaesthetic and bandaging can be removed after just one day. Home News Entertainment Sport ... About Ananova
