In this Thursday, Jan. 5, 2017 photo, liver transplant patient Lorenzo Swank is examined at Intermountain Medical Center in Salt Lake City. Swank was the first person in the United States to receive a diseased liver to replace his dying liver. Swank's surgery was a success and he later took medication to cure him of hepatitis C contracted after the transplant. (Heather Simonsen/KSL-TV/The Deseret News via AP)
