For the first time, a woman who received a uterus from a deceased donor has successfully given birth—an important milestone for the young field of uterus transplantation, STAT reports. Researchers at the University of São Paulo in São Paulo, Brazil, transplanted the uterus of a 45-year-old woman who had died of a brain hemorrhage into the body of 32-year-old woman with a condition that prevented her from developing the organ. Once it was clear the recipient’s body was not rejecting the organ, a fertilized embryo was placed in the uterus; 36 weeks later she gave birth through a cesarean section to a 2.5-kilogram girl (above), researchers report this week in The Lancet. This is the first time a woman has given birth with a deceased donor’s uterus; some organs from live donors have figured in past births.

the uterus was really just a container.. wonder if we could transplant a uterus to a male and do the same thing…

The Ethics Committee has declined your study proposal.

It may be just a container but it needs lots of chemicals to make it work.
I suspect that many of these are not manufactured in the male body,

sure, but we can cover that.. gender reassignment happens fairly convincingly all the time…

I think assembling a baby hasn’t been covered in gender reassignment.

And if the recipient couldn’t develop her own uterus, it’s probable she didn’t have all the relevent hormones going on either.

I suppose she may have had ovaries and not a uterus.

In the great tradition of the forum, I haven’t read the article, but the recipient may have lost her uterus through cancer or some other health issue.

dude, I’m all for upholding tradition, but I pasted the article to the thread and it says “woman with a condition that prevented her from developing the organ.”

I agree. Very nice.

Now if we can just grow a uterus from stem cells … LOL.
