This June, a healthy baby girl was born to a mother in America. While great news, this sounds fairly straightforward. What makes it exciting is that the baby was born from the transplanted uterus of a deceased woman donor.

The baby and mother are both doing well according to a press release by Cleveland Clinic, the hospital where the child was born.

We couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.
Dr Uma Perni, Cleveland Clinic maternal fetal medicine specialist said in the press release.
