  • First UK child born after womb transplant from deceased donor

    A baby boy weighing 3.1kg has become the first child in the UK born to a mother following a womb transplant from a deceased donor. The infant, named Hugo, was delivered via caesarean section in London after his mother received the organ during a clinical trial in 2024.

    In Practice: The procedure remains limited to a small clinical trial as doctors monitor the long-term success of the surgery.
