(The year before Barnard arrived, Lillehei and Campbell had used this procedure for twenty minutes during surgery on a 13-year-old boy with ventricular septal defect, and the boy had made a full recovery.)

Specifically, he was one of the surgeons who removed the heart from donor Denise Darvall at Groote Schuur Hospital.

From this modest beginning, Naki became principal lab technician and taught hundreds of surgeons, and assisted with Barnard's organ transplant program.

In March 1956, Gott asked Barnard to help him run the heart-lung machine for an operation. Shortly thereafter,
