CHRISTIAAN BARNARD. Photograph signed: "Chris Barnard".
B/w, 3½x5½. Dr. Christiaan Barnard performed the first successful heart
transplant on December 3, 1967, when he led a team of 20 surgeons to replace the
heart of Louis Washkansky. While Washkansky died 18 days later of double
pneumonia resulting from damage to his immune system from the drugs used to
prevent his body from rejecting the new organ, Barnard's operations were
increasingly successful, with most patients living for several years after their
surgeries. In 1974, he performed his 11th heart
transplant. In this operation, unlike the earlier ones, Barnard did not remove
the patient's damaged heart; instead, he joined the implanted donor heart to the
patient's heart, thereby providing a "double pump" for the circulatory system.
This technique had never before been used with a human being. Barnard, who
had introduced open-heart surgery to his native South Africa and developed new
designs for artificial heart valves earlier in his career, served as head of the
cardiac unit of Groote Schuur Hospital until his retirement from surgery in
1983. Ink note on verso (no show through). Faintly spotted. Otherwise, fine
condition.
