DUKE PEDIATRIC SURGEONS PERFORM WORLD'S FIRST PARTIAL HEART TRANSPLANT
Owen Monroe was only 17 days old when he became the world’s first partial heart transplant recipient. The revolutionary surgery was performed in April 2022, by Duke pediatric heart surgeons at Duke University Hospital. Owen is now growing into a strong and healthy toddler, and the lessons learned by his procedure are already saving lives around the country.
