Exploring the Potential of Xenotransplantation: Using Brain-Dead Humans to Test Pig Organ Transplants
Xenotransplantation, the process of implanting animal organs into humans, holds promise for addressing organ shortages, but faces significant challenges. The "decedent model" of using brain-dead humans for experimentation could help overcome these hurdles and advance this medical frontier.
Challenging the Status Quo in Gynecological Cancer Surgery: An Interview with Andreas Obermair
Clinical practice guidelines in gynecological cancer surgery often lack strong evidence and fail to consider the patient's perspective, leading to suboptimal outcomes.
