Italian surgeon Sergio Cannaviro has revealed that the world's first full head transplant operation will take place in China before the end of December this year.
The head of a man with physical deformity will be placed on the body of a healthy man, a process that Cannaviro has been announcing since 2015, confirming his determination for the protocol to be used to complete it.
The operation will begin with the beheading that will be established in the body and make sure that it survives during the operation. It is then implanted in its normal place in the body by re-linking all the neural networks and circulatory system between the head and the new body.
The Chinese citizen, who will be under the supervision of Dr. Harin Medical University, Xiabing Ren, who will be followed during the implementation of Dr. Kanafiro's protocol, was not named.
