Forty years since a transplant milestone

Available for over a year

Forty years-ago Europe’s first successful heart-lung transplant was performed at what is now Royal Papworth Hospital in Cambridge. Brenda Barber was 36 years-old when she underwent the pioneering operation and lived for a further 10 years. Professor John Wallwork, who led the operation, looks back on that day.
