What is Xenon transplant?

If you mean a "xenotransplant", it is a transplant of animal organs to a human. These types of transplant are incredibly rare, since xenotransplantation just does not work long term - animal organs do not work in humans. (Sometimes xenotransplantation is used to bridge a gap for a very ill patient, until a human organ becomes available).

Xenotransplantation is the transplantation of living cells, tissues or organs from one species to another such as from pigs to humans.

A good example of this is a pig heart valve replacement in a person who has a diseased heart valve.


Did the Germans try xenotransplant on the Jews during the Holocaust?

Xenotransplantaion had not been developed and endorsed in that era. I could not find any reference of Josef Mengele doing animal part transplantation but with that evil doctor I would not put it past him to do that. He had no empathy with the Jews as humans and did whatever he felt like doing to them in their medical experiments in the concentration camps.


If a xenotransplant was done for a human how can you be sure that the organ put into the human will grow properly with the human?

Within transplantation surgery, there is nothing to be "sure" about, even when working with allograft transplants. With xenograft transplants (which are exceptionally rarely performed), risks are much higher and there are additional risks which do not occur with allograft transplants. In either case, there is no way to be "sure" of a good outcome, due to the many known and unknown random variables which affect outcomes.
