Transplant
In order to replace damaged or failing organs, a transplant is a medical procedure in which an organ, tissue, or collection of cells is taken from one person (the donor) and put into another person (the recipient). Kidney, liver, heart, lung, and bone marrow transplants are among the common transplant types. Restoring normal function, enhancing quality of life, and frequently saving the recipient's life are the main objectives. Careful matching between the donor and the recipient is necessary for transplants in order to lower the possibility of immune system rejection.
A number of variables, such as the organ type, recipient health, and donor compatibility, affect the outcome of a transplant. To keep their bodies from rejecting the new organ, patients need to take immunosuppressive medications after surgery. To keep an eye out for infection or rejection symptoms, routine follow-up care is crucial. Significant advancements in transplant medicine have improved survival rates worldwide and given patients with severe organ failure hope.
