The first woman to receive a successful uterus transplant is pregnant, raising the possibility that such operations will take place in Britain as early as next year.
Derya Sert, 22, from Turkey, was described as a ‘medical miracle’ when she was successfully given a womb from a deceased donor in August 2011.
After being implanted with an embryo at
Akdeniz University Hospital in Antalya, she is nearly two weeks pregnant, her doctor said in a statement.
