Today, 39 years ago, on September 22, 1986 (Lunar Calendar, August 19, 1986), the UK successfully transplanted a two-and-a-half-month boy¡¯s heart and lungs. On September 22, 1986, a surgeon at Harleyfield Hospital in London transplanted a new heart and lungs to a boy born just two-and-a-half months ago. The boy¡¯s situation was good after the surgery. He was the world¡¯s smallest patient undergoing this surgery. The baby¡¯s heart had several problems when it was born, including the lack of a valve. These organs he received were from a boy born only five days ago.
