1.1) Autografts:
Autografts, also known as autotransplantation is when tissue from the same patient in transplanted to another place but in the same patient. There is no rejection in autografts because the tissue is completely genetically identical
1.2) Allo-grafts:
Allografts are when an organ or tissue is transplanted from one individual to another but they are from the same species. In allografts the chances of rejection exist because the tissue or organ is not completely genetically identical so immunosuppressants are used to lower the risk of rejection by the immune system of the organ or tissue receiver.
1.3) Xeno-grafts: Xenografts are when an organ or tissue is transplanted from one individual to another, but in xenografts …show more content…
So some people may not want their organs to be removed for that reason so even when they’re deceased, it would still be wrong to harvest their organs.
• Choice – The person must have chosen to be an organ donor whilst they were still alive otherwise it should not be done. If the deceased is not registered as an organ donor, that means that for whatever reason, they did not want to be one so their wishes should be respected completely.
• Abiding by the law – The law clearly states that it is illegal to sell organs so it could happen that some family member decides to sell the deceased’s organs so that they could make some money off of it. So people should respect the law and the person’s wishes and abide by the law and the person’s …show more content…
This happens when the blood types are not the same; therefore the immune system sees it as a threat. There are different types of rejection, hyperacute rejection happens a few minutes after the transplant when the antigens completely do not match and so to prevent death, the tissue must be immediately removed. Acute rejection happens from a week after the transplant to about 3 months after. Some amount of this is seen in most patients. The last type is chronic rejection and this happens over many years. Symptoms of rejection include decrease of organ function, fever and swelling or pain by the transplant area but this is rare. What immunosuppressants do is that they lower the risk of rejection by lowering the strength and activity of the immune system. The disadvantage of immunosuppressants is that the person becomes susceptible to more illness because their immune system is
