First body transplant will be in China within ten months

Prof. Sergio Canavero, a neurosurgeon from Torino, Italy, is planning the world’s first transplantation of a human head (aka body transplant) within ten months. He gave an interview to OOOM magazine. Sergio is together with various teams in the US, China and South Korea, the author of more than 140 scientific publications continued to pursue the plan he called HEAVEN (Head Anastomosis Venture). In his GEMINI protocol, Canavero outlines every necessary step of the procedure in detail, laid out like in an instruction manual.


* The world’s first human head transplant will be performed within the next ten months.
* The procedure will be performed in China.
* Experienced surgeon Xiaoping Ren of Harbin Medical University, a close friend of Canavero, will lead the surgical team performing the head transplant. He previously was part of the surgery team in the first hand transplantation in the US.
* The first head transplant patient will not be Russian Valery Spiridonov but a Chinese citizen.
*There are already potential candidates for the operation.
* Meanwhile, Prof. Canavero is already planning his next coup: the world’s first brain transplant, slated to take place in three years at the latest. He has already started to assemble a team for the procedure.
* For this purpose, the creation of the first life-extension institute is already in planning – a facility in which such procedures could be conducted in the future.

Two excellent scientists, two close friends: Prof. Sergio Canavero with his Chinese partner, Dr. Xiaoping Ren, who will lead the operation team on site during the world’s first head transplant procedure.

Xiaoping Ren will announce the exact schedule for the head transplant procedure in a special press conference in China in the next two months. Many experiments have already been conducted and, according to Prof. Canavero, have yielded “incredible results, which will change the course of medicine.” Dr. Ren will publish his findings in leading medical journals in the near future. The world’s first head transplant reportedly poses far fewer surgical and medical obstacles than previously assumed. The duration of the procedure will allegedly be significantly shorter than 72 hours.

* The most recent animal test was on a dog that became able to walk again even though 90 percent of its spinal cord had been severed.

* they have transplanted the head of a rat onto the body of another rat

The procedure would have many advantages, he says, including a lower possibility of rejection. Most promising, he adds, is that it would make it easier to reawaken cryogenically frozen brains. To prove it, Canavero is planning to transplant a frozen brain into a donor body.

Scientists In China Create Two-Headed Rats, Prepare for Human Procedure

In the future, this may be considered a milestone moment for humanity. The ability to transplant successfully a head is the work of science fiction. Imagine Frankenstein’s monster without the need for bolts in the sides of its neck. A neurosurgeon operating out of China plans to make that dream a reality later this year. For the time being, however, he’s perfecting his technique by making two-headed rats.

For a number of years, a team of researchers has been trying to perfect head grafting. Operating out of China’s Harbin Medical University, they built on the work of other scientists who attempted the procedure on dogs and monkeys. Those studies produced mixed results and no patients that lived longer than 24 hours. They did, however, provide important observations into ways to control the blood flow to the brain during the transplant. This process is known as neural preservation.

Sergio Canavero, the neurosurgeon scheduled to complete the first human head transplant, led the team working in China. Their experiments involved three rats: one small and two large. The smaller rat provided the donor head researchers grafted onto the head of one of the larger rats. The third rat served as the blood supply for the head during the procedure. A silicon tube connected the head’s blood vessels to the veins of the third rat and passed through a peristaltic pump.

Once the second head was attached onto the rat’s body, vascular grafts were used to connect the carotid artery and the thoracic aorta. The team’s research paper in CNS Neuroscience & Therapeutics reports there was no damage to the transplanted brain tissue. Additionally, the attached head continued to have eyes that blinked and nerves that could feel pain. There were a series of these tests. On average, the two-headed rodents survived 36 hours.

Almost all people in the medical field disagree with Dr. Canavero’s plan for a similar procedure on a human later this year. Both neurosurgeons and medical ethics specialists decry any such procedure as premature, reckless, nuts, and “worse than death.” Nevertheless, Valery Spiridonov, a paralyzed man from Russia who is in a wheelchair, has already volunteered for the procedure. Furthermore, in preparation for this type of transplant becoming widespread, Canavero developed a virtual reality system to help patients adjust to “life in a new body.”

EM center of the human body is the heart. To really transplant somebody, you have to include their heart. The transplant could be successful, but from a metaphysical standpoint, the whole person won't be there.

It's unlikely to succeed, at least from what I've read.

Still, if it does succeed, it would revolutionize the very idea of human life extension.
 
Brains will be transported to a younger body(cloned)

So what? On theory, it is.

You should know any surgical operation has risk, not to say this kind of crucial operation.

Unless a person don't have a choice, he won't take the risk to receive such operation.

It's not a game, man, it's not assembling a robot. A very tiny deviation may cause failture aka dealth.

even if the operation is successful, I don't think the person will be the same with normal one.

I'm talking about future. Hundreds years ago nobody could imagine heart transplant
 
The Brain still ages, transferring your consciousness to a clone or artificial body constantly would be the route to immortality.
Compared to normal cells, nerve cells age very slowly because they stop dividing at certain age. Most brain diseases are caused by body aging. And nerve cells are capable of rebirth.
I agree with you. But consciousness transport from one brain to another seems not possible at least for now. Human's technology has not reached this area.

I don't understand the cheering of some forumers for this questionable and unethical procedure. This virutally opens the pandora's box for a lot of criminal acts, e.g. what hinders a very wealthy monster who clings to his/ her life by paying to kidnap a young healthy person in order to prolong his/ her life?

Sorry, this is just disgusting!
