Would someone recieving a bionic transplant still be the same person?

RE: Would someone recieving a bionic transplant still be the same person?
Physically, it's worth noting that the vast majority of the cells of which we are made are recycled frequently throughout our lives. With the exception of a few select kinds, a person who dies of old age will have none of the cells they were born with. So, in that sense, nothing about cybernetic implants makes one a different person.
