Ann Harrison (lung transplant recipient) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ann Harrison (lung transplant recipient) Ann Harrison (September 24, 1944 – April 20, 2001) was the recipient of the world's first successful human double lung transplant. She survived for almost fifteen years after the surgery and died of unrelated causes. ==Operation== Harrison suffered from end-stage emphysema and thoracic surgeon Joel D. Cooper had told her that without surgery, she had only a few months to live.〔(The man who gives the gift of breath ) Toronto Star, January 27, 2014〕 The operation was performed at Toronto General Hospital on November 26, 1986, when she received the lungs of an 18-year-old Kingston, Ontario, native who had recently died in a car accident.〔(On This Day in History, A look at what happened on previous November 26ths ) The Vancouver Sun, November 19, 2013〕 Cooper had previously successfully performed a single lung transplant on pulmonary fibrosis victim Tom Hall on November 7, 1983, but this was the first successful double lung transplant.〔(Lung Transplantation Turns 30: Joel Cooper performed world's first successful double lung transplant on an Alpha ) COPD Digest, May 23, 2013〕
