Overview

Domino transplants, also known as composite tissue allotransplantation (CTA), are a medical procedure where multiple organs are transplanted at the same time. This procedure is used to treat complications associated with severe traumatic injuries such as burns, and is especially beneficial for those with rare blood types or those who have already lost an organ or limb. By combining several organs in one procedure, domino transplants can improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical time and risk. In addition, CTA can be used to restore more complex tissues and organ functions, such as faces, limbs and hands. This technique has improved the lives of many patients, offering them greater quality of life and improved medical outcomes.
