Publish Date/ Year : July 2025 | Format: Paperback | Genre : Medical Science | Other Book Detail

Organ transplantation is one of the most remarkable achievements of modern medicine, offering a second chance at life to patients suffering from end-stage organ failure. Despite its life-saving potential, the rate of organ transplantation in India remains alarmingly low compared to global leaders such as Spain, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Malaysia. This disparity is not due to a lack of medical expertise or technological capability but is largely attributed to stringent laws, cultural barriers, and infrastructural limitations.
