US surgeons successfully transplanted a genetically modified pig kidney into a 62-year-old patient, marking a historic breakthrough at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. This is the first time a pig kidney has been implanted into a living person; in contrast to earlier attempts, where pig kidneys were temporarily transplanted into donors who were brain dead, the patient is showing encouraging signs of recovery.
