Specializes in Transplant Surgery

Experimental: A few uterus transplants have been reported under experimental circumstances. But the need to take lifelong immunosuppression - and to expose the baby(ies) to it is an important negative. Remember their are other options for parenting and this is a "quality of life" type of transplant not done to save a life.
