I don't think such an advance leap in neuro surgery will be available to the public in two years. It actually involves grafting a brain with the brain stem to another body with a preexisting working nervous system. This tech would involve neural grafting, neural regeneration and neuro surgery so advanced that we should just ne in star wars. If they dix have this tech then we should've had a cure for other neuro degenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.

I can't point out what but you seem to be confused about this idea. It doesn't involve neurosurgery or brain cell grafting, even though I don't know what the latter would mean in practice. In simple terms, the idea discussed here is about attaching someone's head to someone else's body. Technically, it is quite feasible, albeit the person whose head gets transplanted in this way won't feel his new body. This is the major problem.

Is it a rumour? or really such thing is gonna happen after somedays?

It is pretty obvious that this scientific revolution is not a joke or rumour. Most of the surgeons and medical scientists have been experimenting to realize successful full-body transplants for many years. For that reason, This kind of transplantation will come true soon.

Science has been invented so many things as well as in doctors treatment. If body parts are damage then it is possible to exchange that parts or if full body can damage or displace then it could place the right track. But for head there is no exchange till now. Within two years slowly the full body can transplant but head is not, so be careful.

It's not going to happen. Too many connections to the body need to be made. I'm assuming they have to take the spine with them.

And don't brain cells start to die rapidly after 10 seconds without oxygen?

To protect brain cells of the recipient from damage due to hypoxia (lack of oxygen), they are going to cool the head to a state of deep hypothermia. It is not a problem, well, not their main problem, at least. Really, people who go through heart transplantations manage to survive somehow and still be in their right mind after the operation. Lack of bodies is not an issue either since every day thousands of people die in car wrecks with their heads smashed and bodies mostly intact.

Hell I already lose my head after reading the first pages of this thread. If its going to successfully happen, the possibilities are too much for this procedure. This is a lot of trouble compare to the shredding technology that we saw on a movie. Now I'm really pissed off thinking there is really life after death.

It is still far from reality. This is a very complicated surgical procedure and under the current circumstances, I would say that the chances of success is less than 5%. Not many people will be ready to undergo this procedure, unless they are really really desperate.

This is insane. I don't believe that. People still can't grow organs, how this magic is possible?

This will make life easier for the transgenders. If they want to become biological females, then they just need to transplant their head to some female's body. But the question is whether we want to encourage this mental disease or not.
Lo that is definitely one way to go but my problem is how are they going to find the bodies for these kind of things, Maybe they can get the bodies of some of the sex robots to do this.

Here comes the scary part.. orphans and homeless people may be abducted and killed for their torsos. Every year, millions of people around the world are abducted and forced in to bonded labor or sexual slavery. If this becomes a reality, then people may be trafficked for their torsos.


Very possible because syndicates are already doing it for organs so imagine if they are offered more than that when transplants became successful. We are really going in the wrong direction with this type of breakthrough.

I think it's an anti-human project.

I'm skeptical about the viability of this transplant, even if it can be done.

I just don't see this happening, especially in two years.

no i dont believe full body transplant within two years for me that is impossible maybe for the future not now

It's been two years. At the time, someone in the thread asked that it be revisited in two years. Progress has been made, but, no, it didn't happen.

Lol. I don't think op that opened this up seriously thought that this is possible. Unreal to say the least. Even single body parts aren't that simple to replace, how much more for an entire body. And even if that becomes a possibility, we may not be around anymore if such technology is ready to use

In fact, I think it is definitely possible. Canavero and his Chinese colleagues are now going to perform the operation on two brain-dead men, which would be declared dead shortly thereafter anyway. Then the team are going to proceed with paralyzed people, which have nothing to lose either. Of course, it is not easy to replace body parts but heart, kidney and liver transplantations have become kind of usual nowadays, though it did take some time to develop the necessary surgical techniques.

We have two weeks yet. Anything may happen, even shit may happen, lol.
