Turkey: Triple limb transplant attempted
A hospital in southern Turkey on Saturday was attempting the world’s first triple limb transplant, attaching two arms and one leg to a 34-year-old man, the country’s state-run news agency reported.
A team of doctors at Akdeniz University Hospital, in the Mediterranean coastal city of Antalya, was at the same time transplanting the face of the same donor onto another patient – a 19-year-old man.
