The first head transplant in the world is performed

• April 26, 2024

As extracted from the horror novel "Frankenstein", a surgeon named Xiaoping Ren, has just announced that he has managed to carry out the first successful head transplant.

However, is it possible? Although the surgeon, along with his team of scientists from the Harbin Medical University (China), carried out this operation between corpses, he affirmed that it is possible to reconnect the spine, the nerves and the blood vessels.

The transplant lasted about 18 hours and was led by Xiaoping Ren, who performed a successful head insertion into the body of a monkey last year.
