Organ and Tissue Transplantation and Alternatives Market Foreseen to GrowthPosted by Sneha Talanakr on May 7th, 2019 Organ transplantation is the process of transplant of an organ from one body to another or from donor site to another recipient site for the purpose of replacing the damaged or absent organ. Organ transplantation is the last therapeutic option for the treatment in the final stage of organ failure. Organs that can be transplanted are heart, kidney, liver, lungs, pancreas, intestine, and thymus. Tissues that can be transplanted include bones, tendons, cornea, skin, heart valves, nerves and veins.
Organ and tissue transplantation is a rapidly growing field due to increasing prevalence of organ and tissue failure diseases. Better harvesting and procurement techniques, vastly improved immunosuppression regimens, advance tissue matching and effective anti-infective regimens are also supporting the growth of organ and tissue transplantation market. Lack of artificial organs and organ donors pose a major challenge for the industry. However, increasing investments on research and development are expected to bring better opportunities for the market.
