So... they take a pig heart,
Submitted by Wolfram161 (not verified) on Sun, 2008-01-13 21:04.
So... they take a pig heart, decellularize it, inject it with the patient's heart/stem cells, and voila, new human heart? Sounds pretty awesome. But even though there are ample pig's hearts, it sounds as though they need a heart in order to make a heart, right? No scaffolding, no heart? But that's the next goal, then.
Just summarizing for the sake of clarification.
