Donor organ

A donor organ is a healthy organ, such as a heart, kidney, liver, or lung, that is taken from someone who has recently passed away or, in some cases, a living donor, and transplanted into someone whose own organ is not working properly. This medical process helps save or significantly improve the recipient’s life. Donor organs are carefully matched to recipients to reduce the risk of rejection and ensure the best chance of success. Organ donation is a vital way to help those suffering from organ failure and can be life-changing for recipients.
