Regaining Hands After 17 Years, Swiss Man Gets Life-Changing Double Transplant
By Andy CorbleyJun 30, 2025
"When 29-year-old Luka Kriszanac arrived back at University of Penn. Medicine and got to see his surgery team, it was all smiles and handshakes.
That’s more remarkable than it sounds, since the surgery he underwent was a “vascularized composite allotransplantation,” or in layman’s terms, a double hand transplant.
He is one of five people who have undergone this procedure at Penn Medicine—the center of the world’s most advanced knowledge base on the transplantation of the human hand.
An undiagnosed case of strep throat turned into a deadly sepsis infection when Kriszanac was just a 12-year-old boy in Switzerland, and not only were both his legs amputated, but also his hands.
“Regaining hands after 17 years, I don’t think there is a bigger dream than that,” he told CBS News, adding he wants that the family of the donor to know “they changed not just my life but my family’s life forever, and for that, we are deeply grateful.”"
