Fox News
Doctors say Lisa Pisano, the second person to receive a kidney transplant using a kidney from a gene-edited pig, is back on dialysis after surgeons removed the gradually failing organ.
The first patient to receive a pig kidney transplant, Richard "Rick" Slayman at Massachusetts General Hospital, died in early May, nearly two months after his transplant. Doctors there said there was no indication he died as a result of the experimental transplant.
