In the advancement of science, many marvelous things have become an integral part of our daily lives. Medical science is an important part of it. With the advancement of medical science, it is now possible to bring many disorderly diseases. The more you go, the more the medical system is going to become stronger.

Today, for the benefit of the science of lethal cholera, spring, etc., they have taken place in the museum today. Even cancerous diseases like cancer can be controlled with light rays. For the operation inside the body, it is now possible to work with a small hole rather than a cut cut. The operation of complex organs like the eye is done without any bleeding and painkillers in LASER called photo chemical process.

With the help of medical research, new medical procedures, new medical devices are being discovered. It is going to be added soon to the head transplant, an adventurous surgical procedure, so that it can be possible to replace one's head in another's body.

Recently Italian surgeon Dr. Sergio Canavero announced that this new type of surgery would be possible, its announcement.

This surgery can be thought of as replacing other parts of the body such as kidney transplantation, heart replacement etc.; But the difference here is that donors are donating their entire body without donating its specific organs here.
This means that the donor will be a brained person who died, due to the closure of his brain function, but other parts of his body are effective; And the person who receives a person whose brain's functioning is okay, but he is a complex physiotherapist, for which his life is compromised.

The 30-year-old Russian citizen Valery Spiridinov is going to be the first patient of this surgery. He got infected with geriatric genetic disease Werdnig-Hoffman disease. In this disease, his muscles are gradually losing the effectiveness, which leads him towards the prolonged death.

Dr. Sergio Canavero is making the decision to undergo surgery within the next two years, but it must be subject to the availability of a brained donor. The doctors are in the hands of the doctors for this surgery, he said.

It will take a couple of hours for the surgery to complete the original replacement process. Then it will take 24-36 hours to complete the overall addition process with spinal cord. This surgery will be completed by a huge team of approximately 150 doctors and nurses from international repute. This surgery will cost around 15 million US dollars or about 120 million taka.

There are many obstacles in this massive surgery, many problems. Whose head is to be replaced with the body of the person whose head is attached, it must be consistent with different parts of the body. Especially blood groups Even after the replacement is done successfully, if the body is injected into a new head, it will not be possible to save it. Others also say that "there may be a deadly situation than death".

In the early 1970's, a surgical trial of head transplant was completed on a monkey. However, there is no technology to replace spinal cord, because the monkey's spinal cord could not be properly connected. As a result the monkey could not move the body and died 8 days after surgery. But now there is a technology like replication of spinal cord with doctors, which has led to such surgery. Sergio Canavero

Dr. Sergio Canavero explained this surgery as the first step of human immortality. If this surgery is successful, on the one hand, the soul for life will become more redundant as once the Heart Transplant has succeeded, so keeping the head alive will mean that the survival of a human being will be spread.
If Head Transplant is successful, it will be able to give a man more longevity than the present time in the special process.
Cloning is a successful and effective method at present. If the head transplant is successful, another 'him' will be made through cloning with a person's body and then the current head will be replaced in the new 'his' head. The person will get a new body with his personality, memory, and empathy, which will be able to increase his life expectancy for at least 40 years.
However, cloning to increase life expectancy can be criticized on how much of the 'human' will be new 'for' and whether this method should be allowed in consideration of the morality of treatment.

Along with the development of this surgical, medical science, there will be an impact on global politics and the economy. If this surgery is successful, then for the first time the hospital will start it officially, they will be ahead and other hospitals in the world will lead them in this process. Which will play an important role in the economic direction too.

The science of human need only, then the discovery This surgery, such as a physically ill person, can be linked to the body of a brained donor, and can give it to normal life and increase the lifespan of the application of cloning methods can again question humanity, at least in the definition of current humanity.
