Adrian Kantrowitz was an American heart surgeon who led a team that performed the first heart transplant in children on December 6, 1967, at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn. This was just three days after the first human heart transplant performed by Christian Barnard in South Africa, marking a significant milestone in clinical organ transplantation. Kantrowitz also invented several medical devices, including the intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), left ventricular assist device (L-VAD), and an early version of the implantable pacemaker.
