Organ Transplantation
Organ transplantation is a medical procedure in which a person receives a healthy organ from another person to replace their own damaged organ. This type of procedure is life-saving and can significantly improve the quality of life for those who receive the transplanted organ. People who are unable to receive treatment for an organ failure in any other way may be candidates for organ transplantation. Transplantation is used to treat a variety of illnesses and conditions, including heart, liver, kidney and lung failure, as well as some forms of cancer. Organ transplantation can help people live longer and improve their overall health. While the procedure is complex and requires special medical training, it is an important medical advancement that can help many people.
