first head transplant in China, one of the surgeons said Friday, amid
concerns over medical ethics in the country.
Ren Xiaoping, who along with Italian surgeon Sergio Canavero, hope to
attempt the procedure within two years, but only if the preparatory research
and tests go according to plan, Ren said.
"A lot of media have been saying we will definitely attempt the surgery by
2017, but that's only if every step before that proceeds smoothly," Ren told
AFP.
Canavero, who leads the Turin Advanced Neuromodulation Group, first
announced his project in 2013, saying at the time that such a procedure
could be possible as soon as 2016.
But this timeline seems extremely unlikely given the numerous obstacles and
gaps in knowledge
The man who has volunteered for the operation is Russian-born Valery
Spiridonov, 30, who suffers from Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, which is a
progressive and incurable wasting ailment.
Ren said the operation would likely take place at Harbin Medical University
in China's northeast Heilongjiang province.
He declined to say where a donated body might come from and said he was
unsure if the donor would be Chinese.
High demand for organs in China and a chronic shortage of donations mean
that death row inmates have been a key source for years, generating heated
controversy. | e****l
