Abstract

A historical description of the use of other animals species, is carried out in the work as a support for the experimentation in the development and implementation of the different transplants. The majority of the referenced contributions constitute milestones in relation to the realization of a pioneering technique. In other cases the historical record refers to routinely performed experiments that served to achieve contributions in a specific field and also in the surgical technical training to perform the transplants. There is also reference to the use of animals for obtaining the viscera as grafts in their application in the human being what constitute the xenografts.
