SYDNEY (AFP) - An Australian girl spontaneously switched blood

groups and adopted her donor's immune system following a liver

transplant in the first known case of its type, doctors treating her

said Thursday.

Demi-Lee Brennan was aged nine and seriously ill with liver failure when she received the transplant, doctors at a top

Sydney children's hospital told AFP.

Nine months later it was discovered that she had changed blood types

and her immune system had switched over to that of the donor after stem

cells from the new liver migrated to her bone marrow.You can read the whole story here-http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080124/ts_afp/australiahealthchildrentransplant
