flag Darren White, a UK lung transplant patient, received a skin graft that detected organ rejection early, allowing for successful treatment.

flag Darren White, a 53-year-old from Stockton-on-Tees, is one of the first UK lung transplant patients to receive a skin patch from his donor, part of a trial aiming to detect organ rejection earlier. flag The patch, grafted onto his forearm, showed a rash three months post-transplant, prompting immediate steroid treatment that prevented further damage. flag White credits the method for improving his health, allowing him to walk and play with his son. flag The trial, involving 152 patients, uses the skin graft as a "window" to rejection, hoping to improve transplant outcomes.
