A 56-year-old man with liver failure has become the first living person to be surgically connected to a genetically modified pig liver, say the team that conducted the surgery. The pig organ filtered the man’s blood for a few days while he waited for a human liver transplant, they say.


But the pig didn’t make it I’m assuming?
Pig was an alcoholic anyway.
Sure they did. They just had to share the same liver, and sleep in the same bed for a few days. They are good friends now, they’ll be having a family vacation together this summer.
nah they used a genetically altered human liver to keep the pig alive. no worries
but I don’t know why, she swallowed the fly.
Dammit. For 1/2 a second I believed it, the thought process was: “oh that is really neat that they did … waitafukinminute.”
