organ transplantation
Organ transplantation is a medical procedure that involves transferring an organ from one person to another. This can be done to replace a damaged or failing organ, such as the heart, kidney, or liver. Donor organs can come from living donors or deceased individuals who have agreed to donate their organs after death. The goal of transplantation is to improve the recipient's health and quality of life.
Before a transplant, patients undergo thorough evaluations to determine their suitability for the procedure. Once a match is found, the surgery is performed, and the recipient must take medications to prevent their body from rejecting the new organ. Successful organ transplantation can significantly extend life and enhance well-being.
