    © Oxford Brookes University 2012 The Royal College of Physicians and Oxford Brookes University Medical Sciences Video Archive MSVA 154 Professor Sir Roy Calne FRS in interview with Dr Max Blythe Trinity Hall, Cambridge 13 December 1996 Interview Three MB Sir Roy, when we came to the end of our interview yesterday, we’d just got to the point where you were waiting to take a Harkness Fellowship in America, in Boston, but in the period of waiting, rather an exciting development occurred. RC Well, it was exciting and disappointing. My boss, John Hopewell, was very enthusiastic about the experiments and he thought that the drug, 6-mercaptopurine, which I’d been using in animals was far better than irradiation, which I also felt, and that he would be agreeable for us to do a human transplant or even several. And we decided that, since we had nothing else to offer patients, this highly experimental procedure was something we could talk to a patient in a sensible way about and see what they felt. A middle-aged lady with polycystic disease of the kidneys, a congenital disease in which the kidneys are full of cysts and both kidneys usually stop working between the ages of forty and fifty, well she had reached the end stage. We didn’t have regular dialysis as an option then, it was just something that was also being thought about, but we did have dialysis. She came in, and when we discussed it with her, she felt that this was her only chance and worth taking and we then waited for a donor.

  • Cardiac Transplantation
    250 THE NATIONAL MEDICAL JOURNAL OF INDIA VOL. 6, NO.6, 1993 restriction in opening the mouth, difficulty in eating and speaking and poor oral hygiene. Tongue movement is restricted in the later stages when dysphagia occurs and there is ear pain and loss of auditory acuity due to involvement of the Eustachian tubes. The biochemical changes include a decrease in the blood levels of ascorbate and iron. This typical decrease has been attributed to increased utilization of these constituents for collagen synthesis.' The diagnosis is usually obvious but in borderline cases it may be confirmed by biopsy and light microscopy. For treatment, local injection of hyaluronidase and hydrocortisone has been tried with varying results, as have injections of iron, vitamin C and placental extract. Plastic operations have also been per- formed with limited success. There appears to be a positive relation between OSMF and carcinoma.s In one study from Kerala 40% of patients with oral cancer had oral submucous fibrosis." In Bombay the reported figure was 7%.7 Studies of cell-mediated immunity suggest that OSMF may be an intermediate stage in the transforma- tion of normal to malignant cells." British doctors have proposed a ban on the import of betel leaf and nut into their country. Although such government action against these popular and culture-related substances is highly unlikely' in India, it is time that health care workers started public education programmes on the hazards of their use.

Downloaded from J Clin Pathol 1985;38:146-159 Heart transplant pathology: the British experience ARIELA POMERANCE, PGI STOVIN From the Departments ofHistopathology, Harefield and Mount Vernon Group Laboratories, Middlesex, and Papworth Hospital, Cambridge SUMMARY An account of human heart transplantation as seen by the histopathologists involved at the two UK transplant centres is presented. Between January 1979 and July 1984 179 patients received 186 hearts and 124 are still alive up to four years after operation. Cyclosporin A based immunosuppression has been used in the last 120 patients. Four patients developed neo- plastic lesions. The commonest reason for transplantation was ischaemic heart disease (63%), followed by congestive cardiomyopathy (35%). The seven retransplants were for acute or chronic rejection. The monitoring of rejection by endomyocardial biopsies is described, and the causes of death and necropsy findings are presented.

I had been heavily influenced in this respect by the fact that at my medical school in London, Guy’s Hospital Medical School, two of the greatest hearts surgeons of that era were on the staff at the time - Sir Russell Brock (later Lord Brock) and Donald Ross.
