A heart transplant is when a person's diseased heart is removed and a donors heart is surgically inserted. On December 3, 1967, South African surgeon Christiaan Barnard conducted the first heart transplant on 53-year-old Lewis Washkansky.

You ever try looking in an encyclopedia or the card catalog in a library, or try googling for an answer, before you start asking others? You will never be much of a student, if you don't learn how to find information. I suggest you try the online wikepedia, before you start spouting off here.
