This PC refuses to play any video at the moment, but if I recall correctly, such an operation has not - up to now, at least - involved re-connecting the nerves, so any such patient would be paralysed. Unless the situation has changed, I can't see the reason for Mr Spiridinov's optimism.

Head transplant has been successfully done on a monkey, maverick neurosurgeon Sergio Canavero claims
The apparent success means that the plan to do the procedure on a human within the next two years could be on track
Dr Canavero says that the success shows that his plan to transplant a human’s head onto a donor body is in place. He says that the procedure will be ready before the end of 2017 and could eventually become a way of treating complete paralysis.

Like many American couples of modest but comfortable means, Susie McKinnon and her husband, Eric Green, discovered the joys of cruise vacations in middle age. Their home in a quiet suburb of Olympia, Washington, is filled with souvenirs and trinkets from their travels. There’s a plastic lizard in the master bathroom with the words “Cayman Islands” painted on it.
