Best Answer

The first successful kidney transplant had been done in 1954, opening a new frontier. On 3 December 1967 he took the heart of an otherwise healthy 25-year-old road accident victim, Denise Darvall, and placed it in the chest of 53-year-old Louis Washkansky. They were the same blood group, and Washkansky was dying of heart disease and Diabetes. He rallied after the operation, although he died 18 days later of double pneumonia, a result of too high a dose of immuno- suppressing drugs. (hi mom)

The ideas have kept on rolling on !Joseph Murray performed the first successful transplant, a kidney transplant between identical twins, in 1954, successful because no immunosuppression was necessary in genetically identical twins. But after this resaerch showed that this only happened becasue the twqins had identical immune systems so they wouldn't reject the organ. They then came up with immunosuppressive . Hi Caitlin :)

How has the development of ideas and techniques involving transplants since 1800 led to present successful transplants?

Since 1800's, doctors have layered their lab coats with a mixture of urine and tree sap, this stops infection getting to the transplant patients while in surgery by keeping bacteria and infections from travelling off of the labcoats to the patient. Also, the patients were lied naked on the operating table to prevent infections from their own clothes spreading, however, this proceedure was stopped a year later after Dr P. Starenkroft took advantage of a young unconscious female patient during a larynx transplant.
