A 62 year-old-man who was the first recipient of a genetically modified pig kidney transplant, passed away approximately two months after the surgery.
The patient underwent the transplant in March, with surgeons initially anticipating the kidney to function for at least two years.
According to Massachusetts General Hospital, where the procedure took place, there is no indication that the transplant was the cause of death.
