Dhaniram Baruah is an Assamese heart surgeon known for his work in the field of xenotransplantation. He is popularly known as India's Pig Heart Doctor. On January 1, 1997, he became the first heart surgeon in the world to transplant a pig's heart in a human body. Although the recipient died subsequently, it was a precursor to the first successful pig-to-human heart transplant performed 25 years later by Bartley P. Griffith in January 2022. While Griffith used a genetically modified pig's heart, Barua had transplanted a normal pig heart. Barua is also the founder of Dr Dhaniram Baruah Heart Institute & Research Centre.

  • Dhaniram Baruah, född 1947, är en indisk hjärtkirurg, känd för sitt banbrytande arbete inom området xenotransplantation. Den 1 januari 1997 blev han den första hjärtkirurgen i världen att transplantera ett grishjärta till en människa. Även om patienten, 32-årige Purna Saikia, dog efter en vecka, var operationen föregångare till den första framgångsrika hjärttransplantationen från gris till människa, som utfördes 25 år senare av Bartley P. Griffith den 7 januari 2022. (sv)
