Talk:Vladimir Demikhov

Edits?
Hey guys, I read this article and I wanted to make some edits to it if I could, as this guy is one of my personal heroes.

So firstly, The first head transplant was actually done by Professor A. G. Konevskiy[2] of the Operative Surgery and Topographical Anatomy Department of Volgograd State Medical University. The head transplant was not planned. Konevskiy had planned an experimental heart transplant but the puppy was involved in an automobile accident. Not wanting to "waste the sterilized operating table", the surgeon proceeded with the head transplant.

That part has nothing to do with Demikhov and should be no more then a sidenote. Also I'd like to add some more general info, and I got sources ofc. --Synethos (talk) 16:29, 21 February 2011 (UTC)


 * According to an interview with Konevskiy (in Russian), this accidental surgery was done in 1964, i.e. after the transplants by Demikhov. Konevskiy just says in this interview that they showed that it was possible to make such complicated operations in provincial institutions of higher education, and not only in the leading research institutes in Moscow. So this paragraph should be removed. Instead, the first head transplant was actually performed by Charles Claude Guthrie in 1908, as described in Head transplant. --Off-shell (talk) 22:38, 10 January 2015 (UTC)
