A member asked:
Hi! i was wondering about if a binary vascular system could be supported within the normal human body. if so, would it be advised?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Yes, it can be supported but probably not the best thing since it would require 2 hearts. This would put quite a bit of load on the lungs, take up a lot of space needed for other things (including double the vasculature) and it's doubtful it would be any more efficient than a health cardiovascular system the "usual" singular way.
