3d Organs and Tissues Transplantation

3D Organs and Tissues Transplantation

Tissue transplantation is a function of replacing an ineffective human organ or tissue with a new one from a donor or a created one from the 3D printer. This process is very important and it must be done by surgeons, who are a specialist, because one mistake can take human life. The 3D organs and tissues look similar to human organs and tissues, and the transplantation procedures are also the same for both. There are many kinds of organ and tissue transplantation, however, 3D organ transplantation will not happen anytime soon because researchers are still working to make those 3D printed organs work effectively. On the other hand, the 3D printed tissues are available to be transplanted. If these 3D printed organs and tissues become available for everybody, there can be an increase in available organs and tissues for transplantation. The researchers and surgeons are currently working on these types of transplantation: heart, kidney, skin, and bones.

Heart

The heart is a muscular organ about the size of a fist, located just behind and slightly left of the breastbone. The heart pumps blood through the network of arteries and veins called the cardiovascular system.

A heart transplant is an operation in which a failing, diseased heart is replaced with a healthier one, donor heart. Heart transplant is a treatment that is usually reserved for people who have tried medications or other surgeries, but their conditions have not improved sufficiently. While a heart transplant is a major operation, your chance of survival is good with appropriate care. When faced with a decision about having a heart transplantation, should know what to expect of the heart transplant process, the surgery itself, potential risks, and follow-up care.

Kidney

The kidneys are a pair of organs located in the back of the abdomen. The kidneys' function are to filter the blood. All the blood in our body passes through the kidneys several times a day. The...
