An ailing 62-year-old man with end-stage kidney disease has been given a kidney transplant from a genetically engineered pig in a first-of-its-kind procedure, doctors revealed Thursday.
Surgeons at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston carried out the milestone kidney transplant last weekend.
The new kidney started producing urine soon after the four-hour surgery, according to doctors.
