New solutions in transplantology and graft acquisition

In view of rapid advancements in the field of transplantology, emerging solutions in tissue procurement for transplantation became a crucial area of research. Tissue transplantation plays a notable role in improving the quality of life for patients afflicted with various ailments, and the increasing number of transplants necessitates the exploration of innovative procurement methods. This study examines a new direction in transplantology, placing focus on innovative approaches to tissue procurement and discussing the commonly used method of "ex mortuo," i.e., retrieving organs from deceased donors. Given the growing demand for organs, the paper discusses the innovative approach slowly emerging as 3D bioprinting. The paper discusses the key challenges associated with the use of this method in transplantology, including issues of biocompatibility, vascularization, and integration with the immune system. The paper also discusses the latest scientific achievements in the field, such as the first transplants of bioprinted organs, demonstrating the practical application of this technology in medicine. It is also the analysis of the ethical, social, and legal aspects related to these new solutions. The article provides a comprehensive overview of the latest trends in transplantology and presents a holistic view of the current state of knowledge and prospects for development in this pivotal area of medicine.
