摘要
Transplantation surgery started > 50 years ago and has developed into an established medical practice in many countries. We consider it positive if our dead body could be used as an organ or tissue donor. If transplanted, our organs confer other human beings with a longer and better life. There is, however, a relative lack of organs compared with the needs, and many potential recipients die while on the waiting list for transplantation.
