  • Review of documentation related to tissue handling and tracking.

    • Main Results:

    • Several Mexican tissue banks have independently created distinct coding systems.
    • These systems facilitate the tracking of tissues from donation to implantation.
    • Traceability protocols address donor screening, tissue processing, and recipient allocation.

    Conclusions:

    • Mexican tissue banks demonstrate innovation in establishing bespoke tissue coding and traceability.
    • These systems enhance the safety and accountability of tissue transplantation.
    • Further development and potential standardization could strengthen national tissue banking infrastructure.
