Thirty-six years ago today, on December 3, 1989 (November 6, 1989 in the lunar calendar), the world's first liver, heart and kidney transplantation was successful. On December 3, 1989, an organ transplant expert at the University of Pittsburgh successfully performed the world's first multiple organ transplantation of heart, liver and kidney for a patient after 21 and a half hours of hard work. The woman, Cindy Martin, is 26 years old and has undergone transplant surgery for the second time. She had a heart transplant three years ago, but her body rejected the implanted heart and suffered from hepatitis and kidney dysfunction. Martin is in normal condition after surgery.
