New microsurgical devices and better anti-rejection drugs have made possible the transplanting of skin, muscle and bone from a dead person to another in particular, those who suffer facial deformities. But the main roadblock to the procedure may be the ethical questions surrounding the issue. British plastic surgeon Dr. Peter Butler from London's Royal Free Hospital called for a debate on the ethics of face transplants.

Bone Marrow transplants (BMTs) http://www.lymphomainfo.net/therapy/transplants/bmt.html

Site Navigation Bone Marrow and Stem Cell Transplants Bone Marrow Transplants (BMTs) and their cousin the Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplant (PBSCT) are moving from the clinical trial area to mainstream treatment for many cancers, including Hodgkin's Disease and Medium/High grade ( aggressive Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma . Transplants are used often for patients who relapse from standard chemotherapy. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has been used to treat lymphoma for over ten years, much of that time on a trial basis but now much more in the mainstream. Sometimes lymphoma becomes resistant to treatment with radiation therapy or chemotherapy. Very high doses of chemotherapy may then be used to treat the cancer. Because the high doses of chemotherapy can destroy the patient's bone marrow, marrow is taken from the bones before treatment. The marrow is then frozen, and the patient is given high-dose chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy to treat the cancer. The marrow that was taken out is then thawed and given back through a needle in a vein to replace the marrow that was destroyed. This type of transplant is called an autologous transplant. If the marrow given is taken from another person, the transplant is called an

Religion/Philosophy Glossary On the face of it, there seems to be little reason to question the ethics behind transplanting organs. Apparently one of the greatest achievements of modern surgery, tens of thousands of people are given a new lease on life through the selfless altruism of others who choose to find hope in the midst of tragedy, literally giving of their own bodies in the effort to save others. But this really is more appearance than fact, because right under the surface lurks a morass of ethical dilemmas and controversies which have threatened to undermine the entire practice of transplanting organs. These problems have only grown in scope as new medical advances have been made in recent years, with little prospect of an easy resolution any time soon. What are the sources of organs used in transplantation? How can we make the procurement system more efficient? Should we pay for organs? Should someone who has already received one transplant be allowed a second? Should alcoholics be given liver transplants? Are transplants really worth the tremendous costs?

Hair Transplants Updated: Nov. 21, '02 Email Yes, there are problems with hair transplants I did extensive research before undergoing hair transplant surgery in Los Angeles. Unfortunately, I only heard what I wanted to hear prior to this hair transplant nightmare. Before transplants 1 year later Before 800 hair transplants 1 year later. Not only did the transplants not grow, they damaged my existing hair. Baldness and hair loss are devastating for everyone. If you have ever considered hair transplantation surgery, or undergone a hair transplant procedure than this website is for you. Mini-grafts, micro-grafts, and mega-sessions promise natural hairlines that will last a lifetime. From the photo's above you can see the result hair transplant surgeons don't tell you about. Hair transplants have become a top choice for men suffering from hair loss, receding hairlines, thinning crowns, and male pattern baldness. The truth about transplants may surprise you. I urge you to read this page carefully before considering hair transplants. I have created this information page for all men experiencing hair loss who may be considering hair transplantation as a remedy. I have had extensive experience with hair transplants and I have developed this website to share what I have learned.

Organ Transplants from Animals: Examining the Possibilities by Rebecca D. Williams "You'll need a liver transplant," Dr. Zeno says. She scribbles quickly on her prescription pad and dates it: April 17, 2025. "Take this to the hospital pharmacy and we'll schedule the surgery for Friday morning." The patient sighshe's visibly relieved that his body will be rid of hepatitis forever. "What kind of liver will it be?" he asks. "Well, it's from a pig," Zeno replies. "But it will be genetically altered with your DNA. Your body won't even know the difference." Obviously, this is science fiction. But according to some scientists, it could be a reality someday. An animal organ, probably from a pig, could be genetically altered with human genes to trick a patient's immune system into accepting it as its own flesh and blood. Called "xenotransplants," such animal-to-human procedures would be lifesaving for the thousands of people waiting for organ donations. There have been about 30 experimental xenotransplants since the turn of the century. Rebuilding Bodies Xenotransplants are on the cutting edge of medical science, and some scientists think they hold the key not only to replacing organs, but to curing other deadly diseases as well.

But he said it was essential for a moral and ethical debate to take place before anyone underwent the operation. I would be wearing another face that didn't belong to me Christine Piff, Let's Face It He told the BBC: "It is not 'Can we do it?' but 'Should we do it?'"

British doctors say they have been approached by 10 patients keen to find out more about the procedure. Surgeons in France and the United States say they are now ready to graft the face of a dead person on to someone who has been facially disfigured. However, British doctors say they need public support before they will carry out the highly controversial procedure. Medical advance The prospect of transplanting a face from a dead person to another living person was first raised by plastic surgeons one year ago. Speaking at the time, Peter Butler, a plastic surgeon at London's Royal Free Hospital, told a conference that the procedure would be possible within months. There are many moral, ethical and psychological issues which need to be debated before anyone has surgery Spokeswoman, Royal Free Hospital
