2. The moving of a whole or partial ORGAN from one body to another or moving of TISSUES from one part of body to another part of body. ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION
3. VARIOUS KINDS OF ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION Autograft It is the transplantation of an organ within the same individual. Homograft It is the transplantation of an organ from one individual to another of the same species. Heterograft It is the transfer of organs or tissues between individuals of different species. Xenograft It is a transplant of organs or tissue from one species to another. Split Transplants It is a deceased-donor’s organ (specifically the liver) divided between two recipients,
15. The historical development of Organ Transplantation shows that there is no intrinsic objection to Organ Transplantation. Each one is created out of love to accomplish a particular purpose. Fulfilling this purpose always needs love, self-love and love for others. That is to say it involves lot of sacrifices. Thus it is impossible to accomplish the purpose without self sacrifice. Self sacrifice is always not of self motive rather other oriented. So, love for others is the basic quality one needs to accomplish. No other way to show our love than giving. This giving could be of giving property, wealth, talents or our body or organs. So, organ donation is not something to be discouraged rather it has to be encouraged, because it is the expression of other’s love by one who has the self-love. Is the love shared with out selfishness? The next chapter may answer this valuable question.
16. THE PRESENT STATE OF ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION IN INDIA One of the greatest achievements of modern medical science is the successful transfer of tissue and organs from one person to another. Basically the Organ Transplantation is good in itself. The misuse of Organ Transplantation takes place all over the world and obviously in India. Organ Transplantation is done illegally at the cost of the life of the poor. This chapter would deal about human organ trade, stealing organs and commercialization of human organs in India.
17. HUMAN ORGAN TRADE Selling Human Organs Illegal Organ Transplantation A Kidney to Buy a Better Life
18. STEALING ORGANS FROM THE POOR Kidney Racket in India India- International Centre for Kidney Transplantation
20. LEGISLATION BANNING ORGAN TRADE Enactment of the Human Organ Transplant Act Action against stealing of human organs
21. The organ trade in India carries with it many issues, which make it difficult to ascertain whether organ transplantation is to save another’s life. However, what is unmistakable is that the procurement and sale of kidneys from the unknown poor. It is a violation of the fundamental right that every individual is implicitly granted at birth and this being the right to one’s body. The battle needs to be fought at two levels. Besides law and monitoring agencies, there is a need for an ideological battle against what are essentially a human right violation and a form of social exploitation. This is only possible when one has love for himself and love for the other. The following chapter would help one to have clear understanding about organ transplantation as the best form of sharing one’s love with others in need CONCLUSION
22. CATHOLIC-ETHICAL APPRAISAL OF ORGAN TRANSPLANTATION Introduction Each development of medical science brings with it a fresh range of moral problems. The problems raised by the procedure of transplantation increase according to the importance of the operation. With a skin graft there is no problem, and with a corneal graft there is no major problem, since the cornea may be taken from the donor after death and stored for a time. Therefore, the ethical and legal issues related to organ and tissue procurement and transplantation are often discussed in light of such principles as autonomy, benevolence, free and informed consent, integrity and equality of human beings, and the common good.
