Nevertheless, there are several disadvantages related to the surgery and psychological stress regarding the procedure. …show more content…
Regarding the surgery, robotic-assisted methods will decrease the number of hours needed to perform it as well as will eradicate the risks associated with human errors.
Furthermore, there will be other minimally invasive surgical options, such as laparoscopic, which limit the size of the incisions needed. As a result, this will accelerate the healing process of the area of incision.13 All patients that go through a transplant face the risks of tissue rejection and side effects of the immunosuppression treatment.14 The use of bioengineering organs for transplant purpose will abolish the immunosuppression protocols. The main principle of this avant-garde technique is that the engineered organ is created from the stem cells of the recipient growing on a synthetic or biologically derived scaffold. To achieve a viable bioengineering organ some steps must be followed:
Recipient’s stem cells are expanded in vitro.
A uterine synthetic or biologically scaffold is cellularized by the stem cells previously expanded. III. The bioengineered organ is transplanted into the recipient’s
