This card commemorates the world's first human lung transplant, performed on June 11, 1963, at the University of Mississippi Medical Center by Dr. James D. Hardy and his medical team. This surgery marked a crucial step in the subsequent development of lung transplant medicine and the treatment of lung diseases.
