From S. J. Courtney
Your editorial asks whether patients or society would accept “humanised” animal organs for transplant (20 April, p 3). For my part, if extensive anti-rejection treatment was needed and the transplant was likely to give only a little extra quality of life, I might opt for a shorter life with a dignified death. If the technical issues could be resolved, then I would consider hosting a humanised heart, kidney or whatever.
