Yes what you read above is true and if you don't know than here something that will blow your mind!. In the beginning of 2K17 it was announced that there is going to be a head transplantation surgery in December of the same year. The announcement was done by Dr. Sergio Canavero, an Italian neurosurgeon who was personally going to supervise the whole operation.

Sergio teamed up with Xiaoping Ren, a neurosurgeon from China’s Harbin Medical University. Ren is no stranger to head transplants as he has performed the procedure on 1000 mice. All of them wete able to breathe, drink and even see but within 10 hrs they all died so yeah it was a very huge deal.

The patient who was Valery Spiridonov a 30 year old Russian man who suffered from Werdnig_Hoffman disease, In which the motor neurons that send signals for the brain to the muscles deteriorate and the patient becomes paralysed. Valery volunteered for the surgery and knew all the risks that came with it.

“When I realized that I could participate in something really big and important, I had no doubt left in my mind and started to work in this direction,” Spiridonov.

In May, scientists carried out a head transplant on a rat in a practise run for controversial human experiment.

Researchers used three rats for each operation: a smaller rat, to be the donor, and two larger rats, acting as the recipient and the blood supply.

To maintain blood flow to the donor brain, they connected the blood vessels from that rat to veins of the third rat using a silicon tube, which was then passed through a peristaltic pump.

Then, once the head had been transplanted onto the second rat's body, the researchers used vascular grafts to connect the donor's thoracic aorta and superior vena cava to the carotid artery and extracorporeal veins of the recipient.

So the transplant took place in December 2K17 and Sergio Canavero claimed that Professor Ren and his team had successfully carried out the world's first human head transplant on a corpse during a 18-hour operation. So far the doctor had only said that the operation was a success but many critics dout that he is truthful. Only time can can reveal the real secrets behind the controversial doctors clamis and until than all we can can do is wait.
