Last month, Dr. Linda Cendales— associate professor of surgery at Duke University School of Medicine and director of Duke’s hand transplant program—led a team that performed the first hand transplant surgery in North Carolina by attaching the limb to a patient from Laredo, Texas, who lost his hand in a childhood accident. Cendales discussed the surgery and the future of the procedure with The Chronicle via email.
