Watch Live: Northwestern surgeons discuss awake kidney transplant (Video)

Northwestern Medicine surgeons are holding a press conference to discuss an awake kidney transplant performed last month on 28-year-old John Nicholas of Chicago, who received a kidney from one of his childhood friends and was discharged home less than 24 hours after surgery. The patient received an anesthesia shot in his spine a method that could "open the door to increase access to transplantation for patients who are high-risk to undergo general anesthesia," according to a press release from the hospital.
