Christiaan Neethling Barnard is a South African heart surgeon who performed the world's first human-to-human heart transplant. On December 3, 1967, Barnard transplanted the heart of accident victim Denise Darvall into the chest of Louis Washkansky, 54, with Washkansky fully awake and able to speak easily to his wife, before dying 18 days later in 'pneumonia, largely from anti-rejection drugs that suppressed her immune system. Barnard told Mr. and Mrs. Washkansky says that the activity has an 80% chance of success, a review that has been criticized as false. Barnard's second transplant patient, Philip Blaiberg, who had surgery in early 1968, lived for a year and a half and was able to return home from the hospital. Born in Beaufort West, Cape Province, Barnard studied medicine and practiced for several years in his native South Africa.
