Vladimir P. Demikhov was the first to perform intrathoracic transplantation of the heart alone, lung alone, and the heart and lungs in a warm-blooded animal and the first to perform an experimental coronary artery bypass operation with success. He designed the first mechanical cardiac substitute and was one of the first to use the vascular stapling device in experiments. In 1960 Demikhov published the world's first monograph dealing with the subject of thoracic transplantation. This monograph, Experimental Transplantation of Vital Organs, became a "bible of intrathoracic transplantation" and deserves the recognition of everyone who is interested in organ transplantation. However, to say only that Demikhov was the first in the world who performed these operations is to say nothing. It is important to describe the circumstances under which these operations were done to appreciate the true scale of his innovations.
弗拉基米尔·P·德米霍夫是第一个在温血动物身上单独进行心脏胸腔移植、单独进行肺移植以及心脏和肺联合移植的人，也是第一个成功进行实验性冠状动脉搭桥手术的人。他设计了第一台机械心脏替代品，并且是最早在实验中使用血管吻合器的人之一。1960年，德米霍夫出版了世界上第一本关于胸腔移植主题的专著。这本名为《重要器官的实验性移植》的专著成为了“胸腔移植的圣经”，值得每一位对器官移植感兴趣的人认可。然而，仅仅说德米霍夫是世界上第一个进行这些手术的人是不够的。描述这些手术进行的背景情况，对于理解他创新的真正规模很重要。
