For it to be successful for the purpose of this question the graft has to not be acutely rejected or have issues causing it to fail for at least 6 months following surgery. See this article for some insight: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6861770/

Would this have qualified if the patient had survived for 6 months?

Extremely unlikely. Human-human organ donation, let alone animal, remains quite difficult/complicated and relies heavily on immunosuppressive medications to prevent rejection. Can't see this happening in <10 years barring some major (?accidental) breakthrough.
