UK doctors save man's life by transplanting a 'dead' heart

UK-based doctors have saved a 58-year-old man by transplanting a 'dead' heart which was brought back to life. Doctors let the donor's heart suffer an arrest before retrieval, and resuscitated it using a technology dubbed 'heart in a box', preserving it for eight hours until the transplant. The patient was suffering from cardiomyopathy, which causes weakening of heart muscle tissue.
